Multiple uterine fibroids are a type of uterine fibroids. Uterine fibroids are a common disease among female friends, and they often trouble female friends. The harm of uterine fibroids cannot be ignored. So, do you know what the treatment for multiple uterine fibroids is? The treatment method for multiple uterine fibroids depends on the patient's age, symptoms, number, location, size and growth rate of the fibroids. The following methods can be used to treat multiple uterine fibroids:

1. Surgical treatment: For large uterine fibroids (also known as uterine leiomyoma), myomectomy, hysterectomy or laparoscopic minimally invasive technology is used. It is suitable for patients with large fibroids, obvious symptoms, and ineffective non-surgical treatment. The advantage of surgical treatment is that the effect is fast, but if the root cause of endocrine disorders (endocrine disorders) is not changed, uterine fibroids (also known as uterine leiomyoma) are likely to recur.

2. Expectant treatment: The fibroid is small, asymptomatic, without complications, without degeneration, and has no impact on health. Go to a regular hospital for a checkup every 3-6 months.

3. The indications for drug treatment require young people to preserve their reproductive function. Infertility or miscarriage caused by fibroids in women of childbearing age. After drug treatment, fibroids shrink, promoting pregnancy and fetal survival. In the early stage, there are no symptoms, the fibroids are small, there is no complication examination, there is no fibroid degeneration, and there is no impact on health, so conservative treatment is adopted. Or patients approaching menopause have no obvious symptoms. After menopause, estrogen secretion decreases, ovarian function declines, leading to fibroid atrophy, and no treatment for uterine fibroids is required. Usually, only observation and follow-up are needed. If no problems are found, no treatment is required.

If the above methods fail to treat uterine fibroids or the uterine fibroids increase rapidly and the symptoms are very obvious, and the examination also finds that the fibroids are degenerating, the treatment method for uterine fibroids is surgery. In addition, if the lesions are severe and cannot be completely removed, middle-aged and elderly women who have no fertility needs can directly undergo a total hysterectomy to completely suppress recurrence.
