Experts introduce the specific symptoms of uterine fibroids (I)

Experts remind that early detection and early treatment of uterine fibroids are the fundamental way to maintain health. So what are the symptoms of uterine fibroids? I hope the following experts' introduction can help you. Let everyone know more about the symptoms of uterine fibroids .

1. Infertility and miscarriage:

30% of patients with uterine fibroids are infertile. Pregnancy may be the reason for seeking medical treatment, and uterine fibroids are found during the examination. There are many reasons for uterine fibroids to cause infertility.

2. Compression symptoms:

The symptoms of this type of uterine fibroids often occur in cervical fibroids, or are caused by the enlargement of fibroids in the lower part of the uterine body, which fill the pelvic cavity and compress the surrounding organs. Compression of the bladder can cause frequent urination or dysuria, urinary retention, etc. Compression of the ureter can cause hydronephrosis and pyelonephritis. Fibroids growing on the posterior wall of the uterus can compress the rectum, causing constipation and even difficulty in defecation. Compression of the pelvic veins can cause edema of the lower limbs. Compression symptoms are more obvious in the early stage of menstruation, which is due to the congestion and swelling of uterine fibroids.

3. Pain:

Symptoms of uterine fibroids include abdominal pain in about 40%, backache in 25% and dysmenorrhea in 45%. Some patients also experience a feeling of heaviness in the lower abdomen or backache, but the degree is not very serious. The pain is caused by the tumor compressing the pelvic blood vessels, causing blood stasis, or compressing the nerves, or the pedunculated submucosal fibroids can stimulate the uterus to contract and be discharged from the uterine cavity, causing the cervical canal to widen and cause pain, or the necrosis and infection of the fibroids causing adhesion and traction in pelvic inflammatory disease.

4. Uterine bleeding:

It is the main symptom of uterine fibroids, occurring in half or more of the patients. Among them, cyclical bleeding (excessive menstrual flow, prolonged menstruation or shortened menstrual cycle) is the most common, accounting for about 2/3, while non-cyclical (continuous or irregular) bleeding accounts for 1/3. Bleeding is mainly caused by intramural fibroids and submucosal fibroids. Cyclic bleeding often occurs in intramural fibroids.
