Uterine fibroids are benign tumors that commonly occur in women between the ages of 30 and 50 and are extremely rare in those under 20 years of age. About 20% of women over the age of 35 have fibroids, but because the tumor develops slowly without clinical symptoms, many go undetected for life. Early detection of uterine fibroids through early self-examination is also of utmost importance, as early consultation is required to determine the nature of the tumor. The following are the methods of self-examination of uterine fibroids: 1. Secondary anemia caused by fibroids: If the patient has prolonged excessive menstruation, it can lead to secondary anemia and symptoms such as general weakness, pallor, shortness of breath and panic.

The symptoms of compression include the growth of fibroids forward or backward, which can compress the bladder, urethra or rectum, causing frequent urination, difficulty in urination, urinary retention or constipation. When myoma grows to both sides, it forms broad ligament myoma, which can cause ureteral or pelvic effusion when it compresses ureter; if it compresses pelvic vessels and lymphatic vessels, it can cause lower limb edema. 4, pain symptoms: general patients do not have abdominal pain, often lower abdominal cramps, back pain, etc., when the subplasmalemma myoma twisted, can appear acute abdominal pain myoma red change, abdominal pain is intense and accompanied by a slight fever. 5, not easy to conceive: fibroids compress the fallopian tube and distort it, or deform the uterine cavity.
