Uterine fibroids are known as "the first gynecological tumor", and most female friends are familiar with it. Of course, we don’t need to talk about tumor discoloration. Most uterine fibroids are benign tumors. It is not recommended to remove uterine fibroids less than 5cm. They can be eliminated through mild treatment with traditional Chinese medicine and daily conditioning and prevention.
So what are the symptoms when uterine fibroids appear?
Generally speaking, early uterine fibroids do not cause any symptoms in women, especially many small uterine fibroids, which are difficult to detect and require ultrasound screening or anatomy to find them.
Of course, it is not completely traceable. You can pay more attention to whether your body has these signals:
1. Abnormal menstruation
often manifests as increased menstrual flow and prolonged menstruation. Fibroids may change the shape and volume of the uterine cavity, affect normal muscle function, and cause compression of veins and blood vessels, affecting menstrual bleeding.
2. Lower abdominal mass
As the intrauterine fibroids increase, obvious swelling will be felt from the outside of the lower abdomen, and the volume of the lower abdomen will gradually increase, accompanied by an obvious feeling of swelling.
3.Abnormal leucorrhea
Leucorrhea is significantly increased, thick and accompanied by a peculiar smell.
4. Frequent urination, urgency or difficulty in urinating.
When fibroids become larger, they may compress the bladder or ureter, causing many abnormalities during urination.
5. Abdominal and body discomfort.
Women with uterine fibroids usually feel distended in the lower abdomen, often suffer from back pain or general fatigue, which is especially severe during menstruation.
6. Infertility
If uterine fibroids grow, it will cause the uterus to compress or block the fallopian tubes, and the chance of pregnancy will be greatly reduced.
7. Secondary anemia
Due to long-term prolongation of the menstrual period and increased menstrual flow, it is easy to cause anemia in patients, resulting in fatigue, dizziness, palpitation and many other discomforts.
8. Low blood sugar
This condition rarely occurs and will disappear immediately after the tumor is removed. Patients will feel obvious dizziness or even shock when they are fasting. They will slowly relieve themselves after injecting a little glucose.
What kind of women are prone to uterine fibroids?
If you have the above warning signs, you should pay attention to your body.
Despite , what still puzzles many sisters is, how could I suffer from uterine fibroids?
Because uterine fibroids are closely related to the effects of estrogen, when estrogen is secreted too much, uterine fibroids will be produced.
Generally speaking, uterine fibroids are more likely to affect the following types of people:
1. Obese women
According to research statistics, the more obese a person is, the easier it is for the body to produce estrogen. Therefore, if you sisters are overweight, you should lose weight as soon as possible for your health!
2. Women with high mental stress
A depressed mood will increase the secretion of estrogen. If you are in a bad mood for a long time, you will easily be targeted by uterine fibroids. This type of sister should be a more overthinking woman. If you encounter anything that you cannot figure out, you must tell yourself. Please keep an open mind on everything~
3. Women without childbearing experience
When women are in pregnancy and lactation, their ovaries will suspend ovulation due to hormone effects, so women with a history of childbirth will enter menopause later.
However, sterile women do not receive timely and effective protection from progesterone, and are prone to hormone-dependent diseases, and are more likely to develop uterine fibroids.
How to prevent uterine fibroids?
1. Pay attention to personal hygiene
Women must pay attention to the cleanliness of their private parts and keep them dry. This can reduce the chance of gynecological inflammation and prevent the occurrence of uterine fibroids.
2. Pay attention to blood replenishment
Due to the characteristics of women's menstrual period, they usually need to eat more iron-rich foods. When irregular menstruation occurs, more attention should be paid to blood replenishment. You can usually eat some iron supplements or some animal offal in moderation.
3. Pay attention to diet
You should also pay attention to balanced nutrition in your diet and avoid overeating. You can drink some honey appropriately. Honey has the effects of nourishing the spleen and relieving pain. It is a natural nourishing food and is suitable for women with uterine fibroids.
4. Do not abuse drugs
Because the onset of uterine fibroids is related to the level of estrogen in the body, so do not use hormonal drugs without permission, and follow your doctor's advice if necessary!
Finally, I hope everyone will not delay the disease. Early treatment is the key. You should also take preventive measures at ordinary times to reduce the occurrence of uterine fibroids. If you have any questions, you can follow and comment on me and I will answer them one by one.
