Difference between uterine tumor bleeding and menstrual bleeding

Uterine fibroids are a very common disease in women. When women suffer from uterine fibroids, they are prone to bleeding and abdominal pain. There is a big difference between uterine fibroid bleeding and menstrual bleeding. Usually, uterine fibroid bleeding is relatively disordered, while menstrual bleeding is regular.

What is the difference between uterine fibroid bleeding and menstrual bleeding?

There is a big difference between uterine fibroid bleeding and menstrual blood. Menstruation is a physiological cycle unique to women. Women's menstruation usually occurs once a month, the duration of the menstrual period is about 7 days, and the amount of bleeding is no different from previous menstrual periods. The bleeding caused by uterine fibroids is disordered and irregular, and may occur every day, which can easily lead to increased bleeding.

It is recommended that once abnormal vaginal bleeding occurs, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible, and cure the disease as soon as possible to avoid causing harm to your body. Go to the hospital's gynecology department and do an abdominal color ultrasound and six sex hormone tests to confirm the diagnosis.

It is best for women to have a standard gynecological examination once a year, which includes a pelvic examination, cervical smear, and pelvic ultrasound scan, laparoscopy or hysteroscopy when necessary, all of which can help detect and treat the above abnormalities early.

With the widespread use of minimally invasive surgery in clinical practice, most uterine fibroid surgeries can be performed with the help of laparoscopes and hysteroscopes. Minimally invasive surgery reduces the original incision of more than ten centimeters to two or three small holes of about 0.5-1 cm in the abdomen, and reduces the centipede-like scar on the belly to a faint mark. The hospitalization time is also shortened. Patients usually only need to stay in the hospital for two days for observation before they can be discharged. The postoperative recovery is faster, which greatly improves the quality of life and reduces the physical and mental torture of the disease on the patient.

Nowadays, the age of onset of uterine fibroids tends to be younger, which is related to many factors. But no matter what, as a woman, you must cherish yourself and keep yourself healthy and beautiful forever.
