Symptoms of uterine fibroids include menstrual abnormalities, pelvic pressure, and fertility problems. Treatments include medication, surgical intervention, and lifestyle changes. Uterine fibroids are common benign tumors of the female reproductive system, mainly formed by the proliferation of uterine smooth muscle cells. The severity of its symptoms is closely related to the size, number and location of the fibroids. 1. Menstrual abnormality is the most common symptom of uterine fibroids, which is manifested as increased menstrual volume, prolonged menstrual period or irregular bleeding. This may be due to the fact that fibroids affect the normal shedding and repair process of the endometrium. 2. Pelvic pressure is usually caused by larger fibroids. Patients may feel discomfort such as lower abdominal distension, frequent urination or constipation. 3. Fertility problems are mainly caused by the location of the fibroids affecting the implantation of the fertilized egg or obstructing the patency of the fallopian tubes, which may lead to infertility or repeated miscarriage. 4. Other symptoms may include lower back pain, pain during sexual intercourse, and anemia, which are related to mechanical compression of the fibroids or long-term bleeding. There are many treatment methods for uterine fibroids, which need to be selected according to the patient's specific situation. 1. Drug treatment mainly uses gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogues, mifepristone and other drugs to achieve the purpose of shrinking fibroids and relieving symptoms by inhibiting estrogen secretion or directly acting on fibroid tissue. 2. Surgical intervention includes myomectomy, uterine artery embolization and endometrial ablation, which are suitable for patients with severe symptoms or who are ineffective with drug treatment. 3. Lifestyle adjustments including moderate exercise, maintaining a good mood and a balanced diet can help prevent recurrence of fibroids and alleviate symptoms. For patients with symptoms of uterine fibroids, timely medical treatment, professional diagnosis and treatment are key. Through regular gynecological examinations, uterine fibroids can be detected early and effectively controlled, the occurrence of related complications can be reduced, and women's reproductive health can be maintained. |
