Brief analysis of the two most common symptoms of uterine fibroids

Among the various symptoms of uterine fibroids, two are the most common. Most female friends seek medical treatment because of these two symptoms of uterine fibroids. It is very important to diagnose uterine fibroids. What are the common symptoms of uterine fibroids ? Let's talk about the common symptoms of uterine fibroids.

In general, common symptoms of uterine fibroids include:

1. Abdominal mass. This is a common symptom of uterine fibroids. When the subserosal or intramural fibroids grow beyond the pelvic cavity, most patients can feel the mass and go to the hospital for treatment, which may be accompanied by a feeling of falling. Fibroids located in the lower part of the uterine body and cervix, if incarcerated in the pelvic cavity, can compress the pelvic tissues and nerves, causing lower abdominal pain and back pain. Fibroids grow forward or backward, which can compress the bladder, urethra or rectum, causing frequent urination, dysuria, urinary retention or constipation. When fibroids grow to both sides, broad ligament fibroids are formed. When they compress the ureter, they can cause hydroureteral or renal pelvis; if they compress the pelvic blood vessels and lymphatic vessels, they can cause lower limb edema.

2. Pain and abnormal menstruation. Uterine fibroids can cause pain, but the pain is not obvious in some patients. In addition to the pain caused by compression of the pelvic nerves, the symptoms of uterine fibroids include pain caused by uterine contractions caused by pedunculated submucosal fibroids in the uterine cavity. When the fibroids block the cervical canal and prevent menstrual blood from flowing out, the symptoms of uterine fibroids can cause dysmenorrhea. When the pedicles of pedunculated subserosal fibroids are twisted or when the uterine fibroids undergo red degeneration or infection during pregnancy, they can cause more severe abdominal pain. Increased menstruation often occurs in submucosal and intramural fibroids, manifested as menorrhagia, prolonged menstruation or irregular vaginal bleeding. The main reasons for increased bleeding are: the area of ​​the endometrium increases, the estrogen acts on the endometrium to proliferate, the fibroids hinder the contraction of the uterus, and affect the blood circulation to cause endometrial congestion. Due to long-term bleeding, patients often have varying degrees of anemia. These are all common symptoms of uterine fibroids.

The above is a brief analysis of the common symptoms of uterine fibroids, I hope it will be helpful to everyone. Once the above symptoms of uterine fibroids appear, you must go to the hospital for treatment in time to avoid missing the best treatment time and seriously delaying the disease.
