How to treat small uterine fibroids

Patient's question:

My mother is 56 years old this year. She has been looking pale recently and hasn't been eating well. I'm very worried. Could you please tell me how to treat small uterine fibroids?

Doctor's answer:

Uterine fibroids are generally benign tumors. If there are no clinical symptoms, they may not require treatment. If there are clinical symptoms, older individuals can undergo conservative treatment using medication, particularly traditional Chinese medicine, and the fibroids may shrink after menopause. For younger individuals with larger fibroids and significant clinical symptoms, especially heavy menstrual bleeding, prolonged periods, and poor response to conservative treatment, surgical intervention may be necessary.
