The harm of uterine fibroids is actually these

1. Infection and suppuration: Uterine fibroids can cause pelvic congestion and infection. The infection is mostly caused by tumor pedicle torsion, while hematogenous infection is extremely rare. After infection, a small number of patients develop abscesses in the tumor tissue. What are the dangers of not treating uterine fibroids? The rest present as purulent.

2. Adhesion or inflammation: After the pedicle of subserosal uterine fibroids is twisted, intestinal adhesion will occur, which will then be infected by intestinal bacteria. The inflamed fibroids will adhere to the uterine appendages, causing purulent inflammation. On the other hand, fibroids can also cause pathogens to invade other uterine organs due to bleeding, causing gynecological inflammations such as adnexitis and pelvic inflammatory disease.

3. Secondary anemia: Uterine fibroids can cause excessive menstrual bleeding. Over time, it can cause secondary anemia and even trigger anemic heart disease. In serious cases, patients will experience general fatigue. What are the dangers of not treating uterine fibroids? Adverse symptoms such as pale complexion, palpitations and shortness of breath.

4. Infertility or miscarriage: Patients with uterine fibroids have the fibroid tissue in the uterine cornu compressing the entrance of the fallopian tube, causing the uterus to deform and hindering the implantation of the fertilized egg, ultimately leading to infertility. In addition, statistics show that the spontaneous abortion rate of patients with fibroids is also higher than that of ordinary people, with a ratio of 4:1.

5. Malignant lesions: Uterine fibroids are benign tumors, but a small number of women still cannot escape the risk of malignant transformation (the malignant transformation rate is about 1%), which is particularly prominent in older women. Therefore, people with rapidly growing fibroids or postmenopausal fibroids should be vigilant.
