What is abdominal myomectomy? Will abdominal myomectomy affect sexual life?

But now medicine is becoming more and more obvious, it seems that different diseases can be treated with surgery. For almost every disease, patients and friends like to use surgical treatment, and the same is true for uterine fibroids. So, what about open abdominal myomectomy?

For single uterine fibroids of 5-6 cm, open abdominal myomectomy is recommended. For patients with multiple uterine fibroids, if the entire uterus is as big as a 2-month-old pregnant woman, if it is more than 5 months, surgical treatment is recommended. If it is a single fibroid and the patient is relatively young, uterine fibroid stripping is generally recommended. If the patient has many multiple uterine fibroids, but the patient is relatively young and has not fertilized, uterine fibroid stripping is generally recommended instead of blindly performing a hysterectomy on the patient. Therefore, we should consider comprehensively and formulate a comprehensive plan.

After hysterectomy, the patient will first be unable to have children. Secondly, it may affect sex life, mainly psychologically. Thirdly, if a young patient has a hysterectomy, it will lead to premature ovarian failure because 30% of the ovarian blood supply is supplied by the uterus.

But for patients over 45 years old, this part of the impact is generally not considered. Fourth, a small number of patients will experience pelvic congestion syndrome, long-term and chronic pain after hysterectomy. Therefore, we still need to be very careful about hysterectomy. The above is common sense in the treatment of uterine fibroids. Choosing the right treatment measures is a necessary path to health.
