Will uterine fibroids recur after being cured? Is the recurrence rate of uterine fibroids high?

Many patients with uterine fibroids will ask: Will uterine fibroids recur after treatment? In fact, whether it is open surgery, laparoscopic surgery or ultrasonic ablation, patients with uterine fibroids are likely to relapse, just like a cold. If this cold is cured, they may catch a cold again next time.

So how can we effectively prevent the recurrence of fibroids? We can prevent recurrence by maintaining a good attitude, healthy living habits, and proper exercise every day, which can effectively reduce the possibility of recurrence.

In addition, uterine fibroids are more common in women of childbearing age, and there are many women with uterine fibroids, but not every woman with uterine fibroids needs surgery. The size of the fibroids is not the only criterion for evaluating whether surgical treatment is needed. Whether there are symptoms, the patient's psychological burden, and whether there are fertility requirements all need to be comprehensively evaluated. If the fibroids are small, there are no symptoms, and there are no fertility requirements, you don't have to rush to have surgery. After all, whether it is minimally invasive surgery or laparotomy, it will more or less cause harm to the body. If the patient can coexist peacefully with the fibroids through self-regulation and control its growth, it is best not to have surgical treatment.

Uterine fibroids are benign and generally do not worsen. If the patient's psychological burden is really heavy, surgery can be performed earlier. Otherwise, long-term anxiety will accelerate the growth of fibroids. At the same time, long-term anxiety will reduce the body's resistance and endocrine disorders. Therefore, comprehensive considerations can also be taken to perform surgery earlier. If surgical treatment is indeed needed, the patient can consider non-invasive, non-surgical, and non-bleeding ultrasound ablation treatment.

Patients with uterine fibroids should have a general understanding of fibroids, and then decide whether they need surgical treatment and which surgical treatment to choose. In fact, many women have uterine fibroids during their childbearing period. When they first discovered it, they were more worried and scared. This is mainly due to the patient's lack of understanding of fibroids. After having a basic understanding of uterine fibroids, there will not be such a great psychological burden.
