What are the recommended diagnostic and management steps for a 24-year-old patient with a known 5 cm posterior myometrial uterine fibroid who is experiencing persistent irregular bleeding for 15 days that has failed to respond to tranexamic acid therapy?

Asked by Female, 24 · 8 days ago

Since tranexamic acid hasn't helped control the bleeding from your 5 cm fibroid, the next best steps involve both looking closer and adjusting your treatment. Diagnostic steps typically include a repeat pelvic ultrasound or an MRI to see if the fibroid is pressing on your uterine lining, alongside a blood test to check for anemia. For management, your doctor may suggest hormonal options like oral progesterone, contraceptive pills, or a hormonal IUD to help thin the lining and stop the bleeding. Please consult your gynecologist soon to safely discuss these next steps.
