During a physical examination, Ms. Wang discovered that she had uterine fibroids. She knew it was a benign tumor. It is also known that if not treated in time, uterine fibroids may cause infertility, gynecological diseases, and secondary anemia. Even if you get pregnant, the chance of miscarriage is much greater than a normal pregnancy. So are uterine fibroids serious? What should you pay attention to if you suffer from uterine fibroids? Are uterine fibroids serious? What are the dangers of uterine fibroids? Most uterine fibroids have no obvious symptoms and are difficult to detect. If not treated in time, they can easily cause a variety of harms, such as infertility, miscarriage, induced gynecological inflammation, secondary anemia, etc. The main hazards of uterine fibroids are: 1. Infertility or miscarriage If fibroid tissue appears in the uterine cornu, it may compress the entrance of the fallopian tube, preventing sperm from ascending to the fallopian tube and combining with the egg, thereby affecting conception; it may cause deformation of the uterus, hinder the implantation of the fertilized egg and hinder conception. Even if the fertilized egg has implanted, larger fibroids combined with pregnancy can easily cause miscarriage due to mechanical obstruction of embryonic development and uterine cavity infection. 2. Cause gynecological inflammation Uterine fibroids can cause pelvic congestion and infection, among which the infection caused by fibroids is mostly caused by pedicle torsion. After infection, abscesses may form in the fibroid tissue of a few patients, and suppuration may occur. At the same time, pathogenic bacteria after fibroid infection can invade other nearby organs, causing gynecological diseases such as adnexitis and pelvic inflammatory disease. 3. Secondary anemia Uterine fibroids can cause excessive menstrual bleeding in patients. Over time, patients will develop secondary anemia, manifested by symptoms such as general fatigue, pale complexion, palpitations and shortness of breath. 4. Malignant lesions In a minority of women, malignant changes in uterine fibroids may turn into sarcomas, which can cause vaginal bleeding and lower abdominal pain. In late stages, the fibroids can spread through the bloodstream, directly spread, and metastasize to multiple parts of the body through the lymph nodes. |
