Although the probability of recurrence of uterine fibroids is relatively low, it is still a benign tumor, and patients should not worry too much. According to your description, in general, dandelion does not have a significant effect on treating uterine fibroids. For small uterine fibroids, women with uterine fibroids can drink dandelion tea. Dandelion is a very common Chinese herbal medicine, found everywhere in the countryside, and many people often use it to make tea.
