What are the harms of uterine fibroids to women?

What are the hazards of uterine fibroids to women? I believe many people have this idea. In recent years, the incidence of uterine fibroids has been gradually increasing. Women should not underestimate uterine fibroids. Severe cases may endanger life. Let's follow the experts to learn about the hazards of uterine fibroids .

1. Infection and suppuration are one of the hazards of uterine fibroids. Fibroid infection is often the result of tumor pedicle torsion or acute endometritis, and hematogenous infection is extremely rare. Infection can sometimes be suppurative, and in a few cases, abscesses form in the tumor tissue. Intestinal adhesions occur after the subserosal fibroid pedicle torsion, which can be infected by intestinal bacteria. The inflamed fibroids adhere to the uterine appendages, causing suppurative inflammation.

2. Torsion. Subserosal fibroids can twist at the pedicle, causing acute abdominal pain. If the pedicle is severely twisted and surgery is not performed immediately or it cannot be turned back by itself, the pedicle may be broken and a free fibroid may be formed, as mentioned above. The twisted fibroid can also drive the entire uterus, causing axial torsion of the uterus. The site of uterine torsion is mostly near the internal opening of the cervical canal, but this situation rarely occurs. It is mostly caused by a larger subserosal fibroid attached to the bottom of the uterus and the cervical canal is relatively slender. The symptoms and signs are similar to those of ovarian cyst pedicle torsion, except that the mass is harder.

3. Uterine fibroids combined with uterine body cancer. Uterine fibroids combined with uterine body cancer accounted for 2%, which is much higher than uterine fibroids combined with cervical cancer. Therefore, menopausal patients with uterine fibroids and persistent uterine bleeding should be alert to the presence of endometrial cancer. Before confirming treatment, a diagnostic curettage should be performed. This is also the harm of uterine fibroids.

The above is an introduction to the hazards of uterine fibroids. Through the above content, do you have some knowledge about uterine fibroids? I hope the above content can help you, and I also hope that patients can actively treat and recover soon!
