Xiaoying from Jiangsu, is 34 years old this year. Last month, she suddenly experienced abdominal distension and abdominal pain . It was only occasionally, but later, the frequency of occurrence is getting higher and higher, and you can clearly feel ’s stomach is hard .
Because I was really uncomfortable, I went to the hospital for examination. As a result, the doctor found in Xiaoying's uterus and found more than fibroids , one of which had exceeding 10 cm . No wonder Xiaoying felt uncomfortable in her stomach.
It can be said that Xiaoying's uterus has been occupied by fibroids, and it has even been pressed into the pelvic cavity, urethra and bladder . If Xiaoying can pay close attention to her physical changes, she may find abnormal urination.
has a significant change, that is, urination increases more , but the amount of urination is relatively small each time, and it feels that urination is not so smooth urination urination is not so smooth . In fact, these manifestations may be signals of uterine fibroids. If you can detect it early and check it in time, you don’t have to develop to this point.
For Xiaoying's case, resection is also difficult and has a greater risk. The main reason is that the fibroids are too large and the multiple fibroids are almost integrated with the uterus. In order to avoid the cancer of uterine , you can only undergo hysterectomy to completely remove all fibroids.
I believe all women cannot accept the removal of the uterus, but in the face of life, giving up the uterus to save their lives is the best choice. At this moment, many women may begin to regret not protecting their uterus.
, and Xiaoying could have avoided the uterus, just remove the fibroids, but because she did not pay attention to the changes in her body in time, and did not pay attention to physical examination , which eventually led to the fibroids growing wildly, and she could only save her life by resection of the uterus.
Although she minded the removal of the uterus, she had to remove it. In the end, Xiaoying was pushed into the operating room and successfully removed all the fibroids. Fortunately, in the pathological test, all Xiaoying's uterine fibroids were benign .
means that Xiaoying has a relatively low chance of cancer after removing her uterine fibroids, which is considered safe. It also made Xiaoying feel relieved, but the series of effects on the body after losing her uterus will make Xiaoying unable to let go for a while.
What changes will happen to the body after the uterus is removed?
has no menstruation and cannot give birth
The uterus is the discharge channel of for menstruation . It is also a warm harbor for fertilized eggs to implant and give birth to a new life. After losing the uterus, menstruation will not be smoothly discharged. The main reason is that the channel has been lost, so menstruation will no longer exist.
Since the place where fertilized egg implants is no longer there, it means that women have lost the ability to give birth from now on. For women who still have fertility requirements, it will be a big blow to women or a family.
Ovarian aging accelerates
There is mutual influence between the uterus and the ovary. The uterus can supply blood to the ovary , and the excretion of the egg will cause the endometrium to fall off, which will also form menstruation. The uterus needs to excrete menstruation.
Also, the egg combines with sperm to form a fertilized egg, which requires implantation in the uterus. The ovary secreted estrogen can also nourish the uterus and protect the uterus.
After losing the uterus, the blood supply of the ovarian will be affected, which will lead to a decrease in ovarian function. If women do not pay attention to maintenance, it may cause premature ovarian failure .
cannot hold back the urine, psychological impact
The physiological structure of women is different. The urethra and the uterus are closer together. After the uterus is removed, it will naturally have an impact on the urethra. It is very likely that vagina will prolapse , and will also cause urinary leakage .
can't keep peeing, and it has a great psychological impact on women. If you are afraid of embarrassing events, you will always have urine leakage when you cough, laugh or move slightly. It is really awkward.
In addition, it may affect the life of couples . Women who are not very positive in their mentality are prone to inferiority , or have anxiety and depression . As a partner, you should understand and care.
So, if the uterine fibroids are detected, under what circumstances should the uterus be removed?
First, look at the fibroid itself
If the size of the fibroid has exceeded 5 cm , there will be a possibility of malignancy. In order to avoid risks, timely resection is required. There is also the growth position of fibroids in is relatively special. They grow in places that are prone to cancer. For example, subuterine mucosa and subuterine serosa also needs to be removed.
and Pathological detection Exit uterine fibroids that may be malignant . It is best to deal with it early. Don’t create opportunities for cancer due to your own hesitation.
Secondly, look at the physical performance
If you have any symptoms of discomfort on your body and cause trouble to your life, especially some abnormal performance, you must perform removal in time.
Finally, affecting fertility or menstruation
Uterine fibroids are becoming more and more common. Most patients are benign and have no major impact on life and the body. Some patients have fibroids that grow in the uterus have already had difficulty in menstruation, or , and in this case, they also need to be removed.
Xiaoying's situation is actually a wake-up call for all women, and they should pay attention to their health. Regular examinations are really necessary. One thing to understand is that most uterine fibroids are asymptomatic in the early stages, and many people accidentally find uterine fibroids during examinations.
Even if there are symptoms, some symptoms are easily ignored and will be treated as small problems. It is also easy to cause excessive growth of fibroids and increase the possibility of cancer. I hope women can actively do regular physical examinations.
