In recent years, uterine fibroids are a common gynecological disease, and the number of patients has continued to increase. There are many types of this disease, and submucosal uterine fibroids is one of them. So, what is submucosal uterine fibroids? What are the symptoms of this disease? Submucosal uterine fibroids are close to uterine fibroids and grow toward the uterus. The surface is covered with endometrium, which is called submucosal fibroids. They protrude from the uterine cavity and can change the shape of the uterine cavity. Some fibroids are only connected to the uterine wall. If a foreign body causes reflex uterine contraction, due to gravity contraction, the fibroids gradually move toward the cervical opening due to gravity, and eventually the pedicle is elongated, and the fibroids are gradually squeezed outside the cervix or vaginal opening. In addition, this type of fibroids accounts for about 10% of the total. Because the fibroids are located in the uterine cavity, the uterus mostly grows uniformly. Due to the traction of the fibroids and insufficient blood supply to the fibroid pedicles, the uterus may have mild inversion and bleeding, necrosis, and infection of the endometrium on the surface of the fibroids, causing irregular vaginal bleeding and increased secretions. Uterine fibroids are often multiple, and two or even three of the above fibroids can occur simultaneously in the same uterus, which is called multiple uterine fibroids. The symptoms of submucosal uterine fibroids need to be grasped in advance. According to the different locations of uterine fibroids, uterine fibroids can be divided into different types, such as submucosal uterine fibroids, subserosal fibroids, intramural fibroids, etc. So, what are the symptoms of submucosal uterine fibroids? Submucous uterine fibroids symptoms: 1. Menstrual changes: The early symptoms of submucosal uterine fibroids may manifest as irregular vaginal bleeding in patients, specifically shortened menstrual cycles, increased menstrual volume, prolonged menstruation, and irregular vaginal bleeding in some patients. If the patient has excessive menstruation for a long time, it will lead to secondary anemia. 2. Increased vaginal discharge: In most cases, submucosal fibroids can cause abnormal vaginal discharge, increased vaginal discharge, etc. Sometimes a large amount of pus and necrotic tissue will be discharged, accompanied by an unpleasant odor. 3. When the submucosal fibroids are large, they will compress the surrounding tissues and organs, causing the patient to experience a series of compression symptoms, such as compressing the bladder, which will cause frequent urination and painful urination; compressing the rectum, which will cause the patient to have difficulty defecating. The above are common symptoms of submucosal uterine fibroids. When the above symptoms occur, the patient must go to a regular gynecological hospital for examination in time. When uterine fibroids are diagnosed, they should be treated in time. It is recommended that patients choose appropriate uterine fibroid treatment methods to achieve the effect of eliminating uterine fibroids. |
