A cold can cause endocrine disorders, and in severe cases, it can cause uterine contractions. If women have abortions frequently, it can cause uterine damage, making it easy for pathogens to invade and lead to the occurrence of uterine fibroids.

Long-term unclean sex life is also a cause of uterine fibroids. Not paying attention to hygiene during sex. Pathogens can enter the uterine cavity through the vagina and cause endometrial infection. In addition, male smegma irritation to the cervix is ​​one of the causes of uterine fibroids.

Myomectomy

Abdominal hysterectomy is suitable for patients under 40 years old, unmarried or childless. Although they have no fertility requirements, they are unwilling to remove the uterus and need to preserve the uterus. The advantages are that preserving the uterus does not affect ovarian function; people with fertility requirements have the opportunity to become pregnant; and the integrity of the female endocrine axis can be maintained. The postoperative recurrence rate is 25%~35%. The possible reason is that small fibroids leak out after surgery and gradually grow after surgery. In addition, patients have fibroid pathogenic factors and new fibroids. The recurrence rate of multiple fibroids is higher than that of single fibroids.

Vaginal myomectomy is generally suitable for pedunculated submucosal myomas. The operation is simple and safe and does not require hysterectomy.
