What are the signs of fibroids shrinking?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Acute stabbing pain and swelling in the abdomen. The pain and swelling are caused by the release of chemicals from the fibroids as the cells die. Fever is another sign of fibroid shrinking.

View allI'm on my 8th day of bleeding, and my periods usually last just 4 days. This time, I've had clots for 4 days and then light bleeding for the next 4 days. It's day 8 now, and I'm getting a bit concerned. Is there any medication I should consider taking?
Frequent Bowel Movements and TB Diagnosis _Normal Bowel Movement Frequency_ 1. 3-4 times a day is considered normal. 2. 5-6 times a day may indicate an issue, such as: - Gastrointestinal infection - Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) - Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) _TB Diagnosis Concerns_ 1. _TB diagnosis requires confirmation_: A single symptom, like frequent bowel movements, is not enough to confirm TB. 2. _Additional tests are necessary_: Your doctor should have ordered additional tests, such as: - Stool tests - Blood tests - Imaging studies (e.g., X-rays, CT scans) - Endoscopy or colonoscopy _Next Steps_ 1. _Seek a second opinion_: Consult another doctor to confirm the diagnosis. 2. _Request additional testing_: Ensure that all necessary tests are conducted to confirm or rule out TB. 3. _Follow-up appointment_: Schedule a follow-up appointment to discuss test results and determine the best course of action.

I was recently diagnosed with a 1.1-1.2 cm subendometrial fibroid in the upper anterior wall of my uterine cavity. I don't have any symptoms but I'm trying to get pregnant do I need to remove it for fertility? What kind of surgery would be required if it has to be removed? Just wondering if it could affect a normal pregnancy

I'm really worried because I took vaginal misoprostol two days ago, and there's still no bleeding. Is this normal? Should I be thinking about taking more, or is there something else going on?
If there's no bleeding after taking misoprostol, it could be due to individual variations in how your body responds to the medication. It's important not to take more without consulting your doctor, as they can assess your situation and determine the best course of action.
