Can uterine fibroids be relieved with traditional Chinese medicine?

Patient's question:

Treatment situation: I went to the hospital in July for a thorough examination and was told that the size of the uterus was approximately 5.7 x 5.0 x 6.7 cm with an irregular shape. The posterior wall showed a 2.5 x 1.5 cm dark area, and the anterior wall showed a 4.9 x 3.4 cm low echo.

Doctor's answer:

The treatment of uterine fibroids with medication primarily involves the use of hormone drugs. When treated with medication, the condition is prone to recurrence after discontinuation. Prolonged medication use for over six months may lead to perimenopausal syndrome, osteoporosis, and the recurrence of symptoms such as hot flashes, sweating, neurosis, irritability, and excitability. Subsequently, symptoms like arrhythmia, high blood pressure, vaginal dryness, decreased libido, frequent urination, loose teeth, lower back pain, and significant memory loss may also reappear. Essentially, there is no clear medication that can completely cure uterine fibroids.
