How much does it cost to treat uterine fibroids?

1. The most common method for treating uterine fibroids is traditional laparotomy. Traditional surgery involves making an incision in the patient's abdomen, cutting open the uterus, removing the fibroids, and then suturing the uterus and abdominal wounds. Laparotomy takes a long time and recovery is slow. It takes at least 15 days from surgical preparation to discharge, which will seriously affect work and study. Moreover, a large scar will be left on the abdomen after the operation, affecting the appearance. In addition, surgical treatment of uterine fibroids can easily cause surgical complications such as abdominal infection, leading to diseases such as pelvic adhesions, and in severe cases, infertility. In addition, traditional laparotomy has a long hospital stay and requires a lot of medication, so all the treatment costs add up to a lot.

2. The cost of treating uterine fibroids is also related to the hospital chosen by the patient. Generally, small hospitals and outpatient clinics have certain price advantages. However, when choosing a hospital for treatment, patients should not only look at the price of treatment, but also see whether the hospital can treat the disease. Blind selection will only make the uterine fibroids worse and increase more unnecessary treatment costs.

Since there are many treatment methods for uterine fibroids, such as traditional therapy, physical therapy, minimally invasive therapy, and hysterectomy, the cost of each surgical method is different. The treatment of uterine fibroids chooses different methods according to the specific situation. Different treatment methods have different specific costs.
