The uterine fibroids are mostly in women of childbearing age,and among them,the multiple uterine fibroids are the most common.The clinical symptoms of the patients with uterine fibroids are mainly included the menstrual disorders,the abnormal bleeding,the lower abdominal mass,the increased leucorrhea and the uterine pain,and so on,and which seriously affect the quality of life of the patients and can lead to infertility and abortion.At present,the sur-gical operation and the conservative treatment by western medicine of the patients are the mostly used treatments in clinical practice,but both have certain limitations.Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)has unique advantages in the treatment of the gynecological diseases,but the etiology and pathogenesis of the uterine fibroids and the distribution of TCM syndromes are still controversial,so the clinical diagnosis and treatment of the uterine fibroids are extremely challenging.Even so,in the recent years,TCM used for treating the uterine fibroids still achieves significant results.Based on the research results about the uterine fibroids in the recent years,this paper reviews the pathogenesis,syn-drome characteristics and treatment progress of TCM for the uterine fibroids,in order to provide the guidance for the clinical diagnostic classification and the formulation of the treatment plans for the uterine fibroids.
