How to treat uterine tumors

The female uterus is an extremely important organ of the body and has a very important existence significance for women. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to the diseases and health of the uterus. Uterine tumors are mostly benign tumors, but they may also develop into malignant tumors. So how to cure uterine tumors? To completely cure the tumor after the disease, surgery must be performed. The size and location of the tumor must be checked first. Surgery can be performed after the conditions for surgery are met. The following is an analysis of the surgical treatment methods for uterine tumors:

For patients with fibroids, the age for hysterectomy was previously set at over 45 years old. It now seems that we need to proceed from reality, especially based on the progress of gynecological endocrinology. The age limit for ovarian preservation is generally 50 years old (the average age of menopause is 49.5 years old), that is, those under 50 years old who can preserve their ovaries should do so. Or the normal ovaries of those who have not reached menopause after the age of 50 should also be preserved, regardless of age. Because, normally after menopause, the ovaries still have certain endocrine functions and continue to work for 5 to 10 years. Preserving the ovaries helps stabilize the autonomic nervous system, regulate metabolism, and facilitate the transition to old age. The uterus also has its endocrine function. It is the target organ of the ovaries and should not be removed casually. The age for hysterectomy is usually set at over 45 years old. Those under 45 years old, especially those under 40 years old, are suitable for myomectomy. For those who undergo attachment preservation, if both sides can be preserved, it is better to preserve both sides rather than just one side. The incidence of ovarian cancer in women who retain their ovaries is 0.15%, which is no higher than that in women who do not have their uterus removed.

(1) Myomectomy: It is a surgery to remove the myoma on the uterus and preserve the uterus. Mainly used for people under 45 years old, especially those under 40 years old. This surgery is not only for infertile women who have no children, but also for those who already have children, whose fibroids are large, with a diameter greater than 6cm, whose menstrual period is heavy and conservative medication is ineffective, or who have compression symptoms, submucosal fibroids, or whose fibroids grow rapidly. Enucleation should also be performed for the sake of mental and physical health. As for the number of fibroids, it is usually limited to 15 or less. For those who are eager to have children, no matter how many there are, even those who have more than 100, there are cases where they had children after having uterine fibroids removed. Before or after surgery for uterine fibroids, in order to prevent the fibroids from growing again, you can take Qinghong Gongliuqing Tablets to prevent the fibroids from growing again.

(ii) Hysterectomy: When expectant treatment and drug therapy fail to improve the patient's symptoms and the patient needs surgery but is not eligible for myoma removal, hysterectomy is recommended. Hysterectomy can be performed by total hysterectomy or vaginal hysterectomy. Hysterectomy is mainly performed through the abdominal route. For patients with small tumors, no inflammatory adhesions in the adnexa, excessive abdominal obesity, or eczema on the abdominal wall, vaginal surgery may be considered.

Large submucosal fibroids cause bleeding and secondary severe anemia. Generally, surgery (simple myomectomy or hysterectomy) is performed after blood transfusion improves the body's condition. However, in remote rural areas, there is sometimes a lack of blood sources, bleeding does not stop, and it is not suitable to move or walk. If the cervix is ​​dilated and the fibroids have protruded outside the cervix or near the vaginal opening, the fibroids should be removed vaginally, which is often more helpful in stopping bleeding and correcting the general condition.

How to cure uterine tumors? This article explains surgical treatment methods, but patients can also undergo drug treatment. It is very difficult and complicated for drugs to dissolve tumor growth. When the patient's tumor is very small, medication can control the deterioration of the disease. At this time, the patient also needs to use auxiliary treatments such as diet. A follow-up examination should be carried out three to six months after treatment to keep track of the tumor treatment progress and to take other symptomatic treatments if any abnormalities are found.
