Patient's question:
Recently, I have developed uterine fibroids, and I've been experiencing pain in my uterus. My menstrual cycle has also become irregular. The timing of my periods is often off, and the amount of blood flow has decreased slightly. I want to find a medication that I can buy at a pharmacy to treat this, but I haven't found one yet. What kind of medication should I take for uterine fibroids that I can buy at a pharmacy?Doctor's answer:
If you go to the hospital for a B examination and the diagnosis reveals uterine fibroids, medication can only alleviate the growth of uterine fibroids, but it is generally not possible to make uterine fibroids disappear through medication. The effective way to gradually treat uterine fibroids is to surgically remove them directly. However, if the diameter of the uterine fibroid is not less than 5 centimeters, surgery is generally not required, as it does not have a significant impact on overall health. Uterine fibroids are a gynecological disease that is prone to recurrence. During treatment, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to maintaining clean external genitalia and changing underwear frequently.
