Uterine fibroids are benign tumors that originate in the uterus. It is not clear why women develop uterine fibroids.

Most women with uterine fibroids have no symptoms. However, fibroids can cause a number of symptoms, depending on their size, location within the uterus, and their proximity to adjacent pelvic organs. These are most commonly abnormal bleeding, pain, and pressure.

Uterine fibroids are diagnosed through a pelvic exam and ultrasound.

If uterine fibroids need to be treated, surgery (hysterectomy, myomectomy, cryosurgery), MRI-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (MRGFU or HIFU), and uterine artery embolization (UAE) are options. Drug treatments include mifepristone (RU-486), danazol (Danol), raloxifene (Evista), gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogs (Lupron, etc.), and low-dose oral contraceptives.

What are uterine fibroids? What do they look like?

Uterine fibroids are benign tumors that originate in the uterus (womb). Although they are composed of the same smooth muscle fibers as the uterine wall (myometrium), they are denser than normal myometrium. Uterine fibroids are usually round in shape. In most cases, fibroids do not cause pain or other symptoms. However, unusually large uterine fibroids may put pressure on the bladder or other organs, leading to specific symptoms.

Uterine fibroids are often described based on their location within the uterus.

Subserosal fibroids are located beneath the serosa (the lining on the outside of the uterus). These usually appear on the outer surface of the uterus or may be attached to it by a pedicle.

Submucosal (under the mucosa) fibroids are located in the uterine cavity beneath the endometrium.

Intramural fibroids are located within the muscle wall of the uterus.

Pedunculated fibroids grow on a stalk of tissue called a pedicel (like a mushroom) that extends from either the inside of the uterine cavity or the outside surface of the uterus.

Uterine fibroids are common, a benign tumor of the female reproductive organ, also known as uterine fibroids, fibroids that enter the myometrium, subserosal fibroids, submucosal fibroids, and cervical fibroids. Chinese medicine calls them "Shijia" and "blood poison", mainly concentrated in women aged 35-50.

2. Stay away from hot foods: Women with uterine fibroids are prone to anemia. Long-term anemia has a great impact on women's health. Therefore, many patients with uterine fibroids choose to eat tonics such as longan, red dates, and donkey-hide gelatin to replenish blood. In fact, this is a misunderstanding. Because hot foods consumed during the illness will lead to the aggravation of fibroids.

3. Stay away from spicy foods: Patients with uterine fibroids should avoid all spicy foods as much as possible, such as peppers, ginger, beef, mutton, seafood, coffee, alcohol, etc. Spicy foods will only aggravate the condition, increase the difficulty of healing, prolong recovery time, and cause greater physical harm to patients.
