The examination method of uterine fibroids plays a very important role in the treatment of uterine fibroids. However, many people do not know much about the examination method of uterine fibroids. So, what is the examination method of uterine fibroids ? In response to this question, let the experts introduce you to the examination method of uterine fibroids.

1. Diagnostic curettage for uterine fibroids: Small submucosal fibroids or dysfunctional uterine bleeding, endometrial polyps are not easy to detect with bimanual examination, and curettage can be used to assist in diagnosis. In the case of submucosal fibroids, the curette feels a convex surface in the uterine cavity, which rises up at first and then slides down, or feels something sliding in the uterine cavity. However, curettage can scrape the tumor surface and cause bleeding, infection, necrosis, and even sepsis. Strict aseptic operation should be performed, and the movements should be gentle. The scraped material should be sent for pathological examination.

2. Hysterosalpingography: Ideal hysterosalpingography can not only show the number and size of submucosal fibroids, but also locate them. Therefore, it is very helpful for the early diagnosis of submucosal fibroids, and the method is simple. The radiograph of the fibroids shows that there is filling and incompleteness in the uterine cavity.

3. Ultrasound examination: B-ultrasound examination is more common in China. It can identify fibroids. The accuracy of this method of uterine fibroid examination can reach 93.1%. It can show that the uterus is enlarged and irregular in shape. The number, location, size of fibroids, whether the fibroids are uniform or liquefied cystic, and whether there is compression of other organs around them.

4. Detection of the uterine cavity: The probe measures the uterine cavity. Intramural fibroids or submucosal fibroids often enlarge and deform the uterine cavity. Therefore, the uterine probe can be used to detect the size and direction of the uterine cavity. Comparing with the findings of biphasic clinics can help determine the nature of the mass, and at the same time understand whether there is a mass in the cavity and its location. However, it must be noted that the uterine cavity is often tortuous, or blocked by submucosal fibroids, so that the probe cannot be fully probed, or if it is a subserosal fibroid, the uterine cavity often does not enlarge, but instead causes misdiagnosis. This is one of the inspection methods for uterine fibroids.
