Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am 45-years-old and weigh 72 kilograms. During ultrasound scanning, it was noticed that there are small intramural uterine fibroids. As a result, I have been facing the problem of heavy bleeding for four days during my menstrual cycle.
Kindly advise.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
During menstruation, regular contractions occur after bleeding to stop heavy bleeding. In a fibroid uterus, this mechanism is hampered; that is why you have heavy bleeding. If it persists even after treatment for a long time, the fibroids should be removed surgically.
