Are linear uterine fibroids serious in women? What are the hazards of linear uterine fibroids in women?

Linear uterine fibroids are generally a more serious and difficult to treat type of uterine fibroids. Uterine fibroids are also called multiple uterine fibroids, which means that multiple uterine fibroids grow at the same time. At this time, drug treatment or surgical treatment is more complicated and it is easy to relapse after treatment.

If there is only one uterine fibroid and it does not grow gradually, you can observe it for a while and do not need to rush for surgery. This situation is easier to control. However, for many women with a single uterine fibroid, the treatment plan is more complicated and mainly depends on whether the patient has fertility needs. If there is a need for fertility, it is recommended to consider minimally invasive surgery to remove multiple fibroids and preserve the uterus.

For women who have entered menopause, hysterectomy can be considered to avoid the recurrence of linear uterine fibroids. But this method also has disadvantages. As we often say, a woman without a uterus is not a complete woman. The patient's physical condition and hormones will be affected by the surgery. So in principle, if you can keep the uterus, the doctor will protect the uterus as much as possible.

If the patient continues to delay treatment, the consequences are very serious. For example, the continued expansion of female uterine fibroids can cause the fibroids to rupture. At this time, not only the uterus, but also other surrounding tissues will be infected or necrotic, and the patient will also experience heavy bleeding or even life-threatening.
