Uterine fibroids 2 cm

In recent years, the incidence of uterine fibroids, a gynecological disease, has become increasingly higher among women, but most uterine fibroids are benign, so even if you find that you have uterine fibroids, don't worry too much, because active treatment may make the uterine fibroids disappear. However, severe uterine fibroids may turn into uterine cancer. If a woman has a 2-centimeter uterine fibroid, is it serious?

Uterine fibroids are benign tumors that occur in the female uterus. They can have certain impacts on women's lives, such as abnormal vaginal discharge, vaginal bleeding, and genital odor. However, they can generally be cured after regular treatment. Therefore, for women diagnosed with uterine fibroids, timely treatment is the best way to restore their health as soon as possible. So how are uterine fibroids generally treated clinically?

At present, the clinical treatment of uterine fibroids is generally based on the size of the patient's fibroids. If the patient's fibroids are smaller than 5 centimeters, the commonly used treatment method is expectant therapy, that is, regular follow-up visits. Because fibroids smaller than 5 centimeters will not have much impact on patients, patients only need to follow the doctor's advice and go to the hospital for follow-up visits every three months. This will help doctors understand changes in the patient's fibroids.

However, if during the follow-up visit, the patient's fibroids suddenly become larger or the patient's fibroids are larger than 5 centimeters during examination, then the patient should actively receive treatment under the guidance of a doctor. Only in this way can the patient recover as soon as possible. There are currently many ways to treat fibroids larger than 5 centimeters. Patients can choose the treatment method according to their needs. The more common ones include surgical treatment, minimally invasive treatment, drug therapy, physical therapy, etc.

Each treatment method has different characteristics. Surgical treatment is the most traditional treatment mode, which is to use surgery to remove the patient's fibroids to achieve the purpose of treatment. Minimally invasive treatment also uses surgery to remove fibroids, but compared with traditional surgery, minimally invasive surgery causes smaller wounds. Therefore, patients will recover faster after minimally invasive treatment than traditional surgery. Physical therapy uses mild benign stimulation to shrink the patient's fibroids to achieve the purpose of treatment. During actual treatment, the doctor will also assist with drug therapy. The combination of the two can achieve the best effect. However, no matter which treatment method the patient chooses, he should make a decision under the advice of the doctor so that he can get the best therapeutic effect.

Although uterine fibroids are not difficult to treat, if patients do not pay enough attention after diagnosis, it may induce other serious gynecological diseases. Therefore, for diagnosed women, regardless of whether the uterine fibroids are larger than 5 centimeters, they should follow the doctor's advice for follow-up examinations or treatments. Only in this way can patients stay away from the troubles of uterine fibroids as soon as possible.
