What are the early symptoms of multiple uterine fibroids in women? How to identify multiple uterine fibroids? The following are the main symptoms of multiple uterine fibroids summarized by experts. These symptoms are indications of changes in physical health.

1. What are multiple uterine fibroids?

Multiple uterine fibroids are a type of uterine fibroids, which are common benign tumors in the female reproductive system. Women aged 35 to 50 are at high risk of multiple uterine fibroids. Most uterine fibroids are multiple, and different types of fibroids can occur on the same uterus at the same time. This is called multiple uterine fibroids. According to statistics, about 20% of women over 35 years old have multiple uterine fibroids. However, most patients do not find them in time because the fibroids are small and do not show any symptoms. The clinical report shows that the incidence rate is only 4 to 11%.

2. Symptoms of multiple uterine fibroids

Multiple uterine fibroids mainly have the following symptoms:

1. Because of the increase in estrogen levels during pregnancy, fibroids usually grow rapidly.

2. Patients with ovarian granulosa cell tumor and theca cell tumor often develop uterine fibroids.

3. If a woman is infertile but other tests are normal, the cause of her infertility may be uterine fibroids, which can cause habitual infertility.

4. If the fibroids grow too fast, or if they do not shrink after menopause but instead become larger, it can easily cause multiple uterine fibroids.

5. When multiple uterine fibroids grow to the size of a fist, other organs in the pelvis will be compressed. This symptom can be eliminated through surgical removal. In addition, larger fibroids are more likely to worsen than small fibroids.

6. Multiple uterine fibroids can cause heavy bleeding, excessive menstrual bleeding, and anemia caused by prolonged menstruation, and cannot be treated with medication. Surgical removal is the only solution.

3. Treatment of multiple uterine fibroids

1. Treatment with Chinese medicine: Chinese medicine is strong in the overall concept and will consider the patient's overall characteristics, not just the uterine fibroids themselves. Through the conditioning of Chinese medicine, certain disorders of the body can be corrected, the recurrence factors of the tumor can be eliminated, and the chance of metastasis can be reduced. In addition, Chinese medicine is very good at harming healthy cells, and will not damage physical strength due to treatment. Chinese medicine improves the patient's endocrine system through comprehensive conditioning, enhances the patient's physical fitness, and prevents the recurrence or metastasis of uterine fibroids.

2. Western medicine surgical treatment: Experts are becoming more and more aware of the disadvantages and side effects of surgical treatment of multiple uterine fibroids, so surgical treatment is not recommended for multiple uterine fibroids that are not particularly serious. Western medicine surgical treatment of multiple uterine fibroids usually involves hysterectomy, but women who have not yet given birth will not choose this method.

3. Radiotherapy: If the above two methods are not very effective for the patient, radiotherapy can be considered. The side effects of radiotherapy will be relatively large. Women under 40 years old should try to avoid this treatment method to avoid symptoms such as premature menopause. Young women should also try not to take this method.
