Cervical fibroid surgery

Uterine fibroids are a gynecological disease. Studies have shown that the occurrence of this gynecological disease is related to excessive estrogen in women's bodies. Of course, to this day the medical community has not yet been able to unanimously define the pathogenesis of uterine fibroids. So what factors are related to the occurrence of uterine fibroids? What adverse effects will uterine fibroids have on the body?

Cervical fibroids are relatively rare and are mostly solitary, occurring mostly on the posterior lip of the cervix, but can also occur on the anterior lip or sides. The surgical method for cervical fibroids is determined based on factors such as the size of the fibroids, the location of growth, and the patient's fertility requirements.

Causes

The exact cause of uterine fibroids is unknown, but it may be related to excessively high estrogen levels in the body and long-term estrogen stimulation.

(a) Occasionally seen in women after menarche, more common in middle-aged women, after menopause, fibroids usually stop growing and gradually shrink;

(ii) Myomas are often complicated by endometrial hyperplasia;

(iii) Patients with ovarian granulosa cell tumors and theca cell tumors (which can secrete estrogen) often have uterine fibroids;

(iv) During pregnancy, estrogen levels increase and fibroids often grow rapidly;

(V) Exogenous estrogen can accelerate the growth of fibroids.

Clinical manifestations

The main symptoms are irregular menstruation, increased menstrual blood volume, increased leucorrhea or bladder and rectal symptoms. Some patients have no symptoms. Gynecological examinations may reveal protruding myoma nodules in the cervix or changes in the shape of the cervix. The cervix on the side where the myoma is located is enlarged, while the opposite side is compressed and thinned, and the external os of the cervix is ​​stretched and flattened into a twist shape.

Self-Test

1. Abdominal pain

Pay attention to pain in the lower abdomen, lower back, or sacrum. Because sometimes, pain is the self-exposure of the tumor. The tumor compresses the tissue, pulls it, and the pedicle twists, ruptures or degenerates, etc., which can cause abdominal pain.

2. Watch out for abnormal bleeding

If there are cervical or uterine diseases, such as uterine fibroids or cervical erosion, there will often be increased menstruation, postmenopausal bleeding or contact bleeding. Therefore, any bleeding other than normal menstruation must be investigated and checked in time for timely treatment.

3. Observe leucorrhea

Normal leucorrhea is a small amount of slightly sticky, transparent, egg white-like secretion, which is more abundant four or five days before and after ovulation. It has no odor and changes slightly with the menstrual cycle. However, if it is abnormal leucorrhea, pus, bloody, or watery leucorrhea are all abnormal. Abnormal leucorrhea is usually accompanied by an odor and is relatively easy to detect. Many gynecological diseases can cause abnormal leucorrhea. If a woman has abnormal leucorrhea, she must not be careless and must go to the hospital for examination and treatment immediately.
