What medications are needed to treat uterine fibroids?

Patient's question:

Upon careful examination, I found that I have uterine fibroids. I want to know what to pay attention to after getting uterine fibroids. Uterine fibroids can be harmful, and yes, they affect people's faces.

Doctor's answer:

Uterine fibroids are caused by elevated estrogen levels. In terms of medication and diet, reduce the intake of drugs or foods containing estrogen. If uterine fibroids are detected, there is no need to worry too much, as they are benign and do not necessarily require surgical treatment. Uterine fibroids smaller than 2 centimeters do not need treatment for the time being. If the fibroids are actively shrinking, minimally invasive treatment under magnetic resonance guidance can be adopted, where needles are used to "remove pests" targeting the fibroids, controlling their growth and preventing further expansion to different degrees. Without the need for surgery, the uterus can be preserved, and there is no need for hospitalization—treatment can be done on an outpatient basis.
