How to determine the size of uterine fibroids? Do uterine fibroids with a volume exceeding ten centimeters need to be removed

Uterine fibroids are a common gynecological disease among women of childbearing age, which poses a great threat to women's health. When uterine fibroids develop to 10 centimeters, how should they be treated? In fact, the common treatment methods for uterine fibroids include medication, surgery, ultrasound, etc. Only after reaching a certain level of data can fibroids be suitable for surgical treatment. Moreover, the development of uterine fibroids in patients is very detrimental to their health. Therefore, after reaching a certain level, measures must be taken to remove it. On the other hand, correspondingly, the patient's body also exhibits a series of symptoms.

What determines the size of uterine fibroids?

The size of uterine fibroids is one of the important factors determining surgery. When uterine fibroids grow to 10cm, they should be actively treated according to their own situation. Even if the patient has amenorrhea, examination and treatment cannot be ignored. Currently, minimally invasive surgery is an effective treatment method with outstanding advantages. After scientific treatment, it is generally possible to regain health.

So what if the volume of uterine fibroids exceeds ten centimeters?

1. Surgery is required

Patients should understand that a 10cm uterine fibroid requires surgery. It is mainly a necessary condition for uterine fibroids to grow to a fist size of more than 5 centimeters in surgical conditions. At this point, due to the excessive size of the fibroid, other organs in the pelvis will experience significant compression, and it is necessary to schedule a surgical resection time to reduce the compression in the pelvis. The probability of deterioration of large uterine fibroids is significantly higher than that of small uterine fibroids in clinical practice. Uterine fibroids are quite large at 10cm and should be surgically removed at this time.

2. Women with amenorrhea also need surgery

For women with amenorrhea, uterine fibroids up to 10cm in size also require surgery. After amenorrhea, uterine fibroids atrophy correspondingly, but not necessarily. If you do not want to undergo surgery, please undergo an ultrasound examination at any time. Physical discomfort, ultrasound examination shows that the uterine fibroids have not shrunk and should be treated surgically. On the contrary, ultrasound examination shows that the fibroids have shrunk and the body is not affected in a timely manner. Conservative treatment is recommended without surgery.

At present, the medical method for treating uterine fibroids is minimally invasive surgery, which has the advantages of minimal damage, no need for laparotomy, small wound size, short recovery time for patients, and does not reduce their own immunity. Meanwhile, minimally invasive surgery is less prone to infection, does not cause pelvic and abdominal adhesions, and does not affect women's fertility.

Based on the above introduction, patients with uterine fibroids that are 10cm in size should give full attention and generally undergo surgical treatment to effectively remove the affected area. After all, 10cm has reached a serious level and cannot be underestimated. Generally, after a period of comprehensive treatment, patients can recover their health.
