Small submucosal fibroids or dysfunction, uterine bleeding, and endometrial polyps are not easy to detect with bimanual examination. Curettage and dilation can be used to assist in diagnosis. If it is a submucosal fibroid, the surgical instrument may feel a convex surface rising up and then sliding down in the uterine cavity, or feel something sliding in the uterine cavity. This is one of the examination methods for uterine fibroids.

2. X-ray examination

When the fibroids are calcified, they appear as scattered spots or shell-like calcifications, with rough and wavy honeycomb-like capsules or edges. This is also an examination item for uterine fibroids.

3. Hysterosalpingography

Ideal hysterography can not only show the number and size of submucosal fibroids, but also their location, so it is very helpful for the early diagnosis of submucosal fibroids. The method is simple, and the hysterography at the site of the fibroids shows that there is filling and incompleteness in the uterine cavity. This type of uterine fibroid examination is relatively common.
