What are multiple uterine fibroids? What is the high-risk age for multiple uterine fibroids?

According to statistics, about 20% of women over 35 years old will have multiple uterine fibroids. Most patients fail to find them in time because the fibroids are small and asymptomatic. The treatment of multiple uterine fibroids depends on the patient's age, symptoms, location, size, growth rate, number of fibroids, deformation of the uterus, whether to retain reproductive function and the patient's wishes. So what are multiple uterine fibroids and what are their symptoms?

Multiple uterine fibroids are the most common benign tumors of the female reproductive system, mostly occurring between the ages of 35 and 50. Uterine fibroids are usually multiple, and the above-mentioned different types of fibroids can occur simultaneously in the same uterus, which is called multiple uterine fibroids. According to statistics, about 20% of women over the age of 35 suffer from multiple uterine fibroids, but most patients fail to detect them because the fibroids are small and asymptomatic. Clinically, the incidence of fibroids is only 4-11%.

Generally speaking, the symptoms of multiple uterine fibroids mainly include the following aspects:

(1) Multiple uterine fibroids grow too fast, or the fibroids do not shrink after menopause but become larger.

(2) If the female infertility test is normal, the cause of infertility may be uterine fibroids. Multiple uterine fibroids can cause habitual miscarriage.

(3) Multiple uterine fibroids grow to the size of a fist and compress other pelvic organs. Surgical removal can relieve symptoms, but large fibroids are more likely to worsen than small fibroids.
