What medications cannot be taken with uterine fibroids?

Patient's question:

What medications cannot be taken with uterine fibroids? Will having uterine fibroids cause the uterus to age prematurely? How long does the treatment need to last to be effective?

Doctor's answer:

Uterine fibroids cannot take estrogen and progesterone drugs, otherwise it will stimulate the fibroids to shrink. If the fibroids do not affect menstruation, there is no need for premature menopause. For small fibroids, irregular follow-up is sufficient. Currently, it is close to menopause. Generally, after menopause, fibroids naturally expand. If the fibroids are large and significantly affect menstrual volume, surgical treatment will be necessary, as medication is not very effective. The above information can be used for reference.
