How to remove uterine fibroids? What should be paid attention to when removing uterine fibroids?

If uterine fibroids are not treated in time, it will lead to female infertility, miscarriage, frequent urination, urination disorder, etc. So, what should be paid attention to when removing uterine fibroids? Uterine fibroids are the most common benign tumors of the female reproductive organs, also known as uterine leiomyoma, which are common in women under 30 to 20 years old and rarely in women over 50 years old.

The vast majority of uterine fibroids are benign. However, because uterine fibroids tend to occur frequently, in women of childbearing age, fibroids may gradually increase in size with age, and myomectomy may also recur. The rate of malignant change (i.e., sarcoma change) of uterine fibroids is very low, about 0.4-0.8%. However, we still need to be vigilant about the risk of malignant change. Uterine fibroids can usually be divided into subserosal fibroids, intramural fibroids, submucosal fibroids or cervical fibroids, broad ligament fibroids, etc.

Generally, as long as uterine fibroids are found, if it is 5CM, we can consider drug control and regular observation. If the above symptoms are severe, we can consider drugs combined with physical therapy. If the uterine fibroids grow faster, timely treatment is required. Whether surgery for uterine fibroids depends on the specific situation. Due to the different size, number, location, growth rate and age factors of the fibroids, the patient's symptoms are different, and the specific treatment methods are also different. In fact, most uterine fibroids do not require surgical removal because the endocrine environment that causes the growth of fibroids is well regulated. Even if the fibroids are removed, new fibroids will grow.

In addition, for patients who have uterine fibroids removed, it is best to perform an endometrial pathology examination before surgery to eliminate endometrial precancerous lesions or cancer. Pay attention to whether the fibroids are malignant during surgery, and send them for rapid biopsy if they are suspicious. It is best to choose the treatment method for uterine fibroids under the guidance of a doctor to avoid misusing the treatment method and delaying the disease.
