Uterine fibroids are benign tumors that occur frequently in women and may cause anemia, miscarriage or premature birth, or even infertility in women.
Many women find uterine fibroids due to miscarriage or infertility after pregnancy, so many people feel that uterine fibroids are silent.
In fact, many times there are uterine fibroids, menstruation has given hints, but we are not the same thing.
Uterine fibroids, menstrual prophet!
NO.1
Menstrual flow increases
In general, many women think that having more menstruation is a good thing, proving that the body is good and the metabolism is fast.
In fact, the sudden increase in menstrual flow is a signal for uterine fibroids.
Because uterine fibroids will affect the contraction of the uterus, the contractility is poor, the blood is open, and the amount of outflow will naturally be more.
And uterine fibroids will also increase the volume of the uterus, so that the area of the endometrium increases, and the shedding lining increases, which naturally leads to more menstruation.
So don't think that getting more menstrual is a good thing, it's likely that uterine fibroids come to the door.
NO.2
The duration of menstruation is prolonged
If the previous menstruation ended in 3 to 5 days, and now it has become 5 to 7 days, or even longer, then it is important to note that it may be that the uterine fibroids cause poor uterine contractions and thus prolong the duration of menstruation.
Although the duration of menstruation is normal for 7 days, if it is found that the duration of menstruation has a tendency to continue to increase, it is necessary to pay attention to the possibility of uterine fibroids.
NO.3
The interval between menstruations is shortened
In general, the menstrual cycle is normal for 21 to 35 days.
However, if the menstrual interval has been found to be shortened recently, it may have been 30 days before, and now it is shortened to 28 days, or even 25 days, although it seems to be within the normal range, but the menstrual interval is shortened, it may be a signal of uterine fibroids, pay attention to the investigation.
NO.4
Dysmenorrhea occurs during menstruation
If dysmenorrhea has recently begun, it may also be caused by uterine fibroids.
In traditional Chinese medicine, if there is no passage, it is painful, and when there are uterine fibroids, the blood flow will be hindered by the uterine fibroids when passing, resulting in dysmenorrhea.
Therefore, there was no dysmenorrhea before, and suddenly there was dysmenorrhea, and attention should be paid to excluding the possibility of uterine fibroids.
NO.5
Abnormal bleeding during non-menstrual periods
There are many causes of abnormal bleeding during non-menstrual periods, such as functional uterine bleeding, gynecological tumors, inflammation, blood diseases, etc.
Although this condition is not necessarily caused by uterine fibroids, the possibility of uterine fibroids cannot be ruled out.
Moreover, uterine fibroids are generally caused by abnormal estrogen secretion, and menstruation is closely related to estrogen secretion, so it is very likely to lead to abnormal bleeding during non-menstruation, which should not be careless.
Menstruation is a barometer of the female body, if these 5 abnormalities appear, do not do the same thing, it is likely to be a sign of uterine fibroids, check in time.
Uterine fibroids If the fibroids are not large, usually pay more attention to reducing the intake of estrogen foods, such as royal jelly, soy milk, meat, tonics, etc., and regular review can be done.
However, if the fibroids are too large, in addition to medication treatment, surgery may also be required, and more attention must be paid.
