The inflamed uterine fibroids will adhere to the uterine appendages, causing suppurative inflammation. On the other hand, the symptoms of uterine fibroids will also cause pathogenic bacteria to invade other uterine organs due to bleeding, causing gynecological inflammation such as adnexitis and pelvic inflammatory disease.

In severe cases, patients with uterine fibroids will experience adverse symptoms such as general fatigue, pale complexion, palpitations and shortness of breath.

3. Complications of uterine fibroids also include infection and suppuration. Uterine fibroids can cause pelvic congestion and infection. The infection is mostly caused by the torsion of the tumor pedicle, while blood-borne infection is extremely rare. After infection, a few patients with uterine fibroids will form abscesses in the tumor tissue, while the rest will show suppuration.

The symptoms of uterine fibroids can cause the uterus to deform and hinder the implantation of the fertilized egg, eventually leading to infertility.
