Uterine Fibroids: Diagnosis & Treatment – Antai Hospital
Uterine fibroids (UFs), also known as uterine leiomyomas, are benign neoplasms of the uterus that affect women of reproductive age in their 20s, 30s, and 40s. They may be asymptomatic or cause a range of severe and chronic symptoms. The most common presenting symptom is heavy menstrual bleeding, which can lead to anemia, fatigue, and painful periods. UF symptoms include non-cyclic pain, abdominal protuberance, painful intercourse or pelvic press-sure, and bladder or bowel dysfunction resulting in urinary incontinence or retention, pain, or constipation.4–10UFsmay also be associated with reproductive problems, including impaired fertility, pregnancy complications, and loss, etc. Uterine fibroids are one of the primary factors for miscarriages and recurrent miscarriages.
Depending on the growth location of the fibroids they can be categorized as:
- Subserosal Fibroids

Most hospitals cannot offer this guarantee without using their most common management method for uterine fibroids: which is Hysterectomy. With a hysterectomy, there will be zero chance of recurrence of the fibroids as the entire or part of the uterus is removed. This is simply crude, unnecessary, and is not in the patient’s best interest. Yes, the fibroids do not recur or regrow, but at the cost of removal of a perfectly healthy organ. This we cannot accept and do not practice. With our effective 414 Treatment System, we have helped over 35000 patients successfully have full term pregnancies without hysterectomy.
