What are the symptoms of uterine fibroids? Is increased menstrual flow a symptom of uterine fibroids?

Uterine fibroids present with common clinical symptoms such as shortened menstrual cycles and increased menstrual flow. So, how much minimally invasive treatment can be done for uterine fibroids, and is the effect good?

Uterine fibroids, also known as uterine leiomyoma, are the most common benign tumors of the female genitalia. Most are asymptomatic, with a few showing vaginal bleeding, abdominal tumors, and compression symptoms. If the pedicle is twisted or other conditions occur, it may cause pain. It is common in multiple uterine fibroids. The exact cause of the disease is still unclear, but it may be related to excessive estrogen levels in the body and long-term estrogen stimulation. Modern Western medicine uses sex hormones or surgery for treatment, and there is no other ideal treatment method.

Generally, once a uterine fibroid is found, if it is 5CM, we can consider drug control and regular observation. If the symptoms are more than CM, we can consider combining drugs with physical therapy. If the uterine fibroid grows rapidly, it needs timely treatment.

Minimally invasive surgery for uterine fibroids reduces the probability of complications such as infection and adhesion. Since the tissue is not exposed during the operation, there is less bleeding, less damage, shorter hospitalization time, and faster postoperative recovery, which greatly reduces the physical and mental torture of pain on patients.

Minimally invasive surgery for uterine fibroids is currently the most advanced treatment method with the least harm to the patient's body. For unmarried women, it has the advantage of not affecting pregnancy and reducing the degree of incision damage. Patients with uterine fibroids are treated with laparoscopic myomectomy, hysteroscopic submucosal myomectomy and other methods, which are perfect methods for protecting women's uterus and treating uterine fibroids.
