Do you know what uterine fibroids are? What harm does uterine fibroids do to women? Uterine fibroids are benign tumors, and most patients do not experience obvious discomfort. Due to the particularity of the affected area, uterine fibroids are a disease that causes great harm to women, and some damage cannot be compensated. However, due to different locations, the consequences are also different. So, here I will introduce to you the harms of uterine fibroids to the body. I hope it will be helpful to everyone. Let's take a look. 1. Anemia Patients with uterine fibroids who suffer from heavy menstrual periods for a long time are prone to secondary anemia and even anemic heart disease. In severe cases, they may experience symptoms such as general fatigue, pale complexion, shortness of breath, and palpitations. 2. Twist Subserosal fibroids may twist at the pedicle, causing acute abdominal pain. If the tumor pedicle is severely torsioned and surgery is not performed immediately or it cannot be torn back on its own, the tumor pedicle may be broken and a free myoma may be formed. The twisted myoma may also pull the entire uterus and cause axial torsion of the uterus. 3. Infertility After pregnancy, it may lead to miscarriage, premature birth, and other complications during delivery. During pregnancy, the influence of fibroids may cause abdominal pain and uterine contractions, which need to be differentiated from premature birth. 4. Concurrent gynecological inflammation Patients with uterine fibroids will experience symptoms of menstrual changes, such as increased menstrual flow and prolonged menstrual periods. Irregular bleeding can lead to invasion by pathogenic bacteria, causing gynecological inflammations such as adnexitis and pelvic inflammatory disease. 5. Uterine fibroids combined with uterine body cancer The incidence of uterine fibroids combined with uterine body cancer is 2%, which is much higher than the incidence of uterine fibroids combined with cervical cancer. Therefore, menopausal patients with uterine fibroids who have persistent uterine bleeding should be alert to the presence of endometrial cancer. The above introduces the harm of uterine fibroids to the body. I believe everyone has already understood it. I also want to tell you that some patients with uterine fibroids may cause infertility because their fibroids grow right at the opening of the fallopian tube, blocking the opening of the fallopian tube. Some patients have fibroids occupying the uterine cavity, which may also cause infertility. Therefore, if this happens, you must go to the hospital for examination. |
