What are the treatment options for uterine fibroids?

Patient's question:

I've been feeling pain in my uterus recently, and sometimes it also hurts when I urinate. I haven't been sleeping well at night. When I had a thorough check-up at the hospital, the doctor said I had uterine fibroids and advised me not to have sexual activity for now and to seek treatment as soon as possible.

Doctor's answer:

Currently, the commonly used methods for clinical diagnosis and treatment of uterine fibroids include surgery, minimally invasive treatment, and drug treatment. Due to the flexible application of minimally invasive treatment, the use of traditional surgery has decreased significantly. Western hormone treatment has obvious side effects, and its clinical application is becoming less frequent. The main methods are still surgery and minimally invasive treatment. It is recommended to consult with a hospital and doctor to determine the most suitable method for implementation. Daily treatment for uterine fibroid patients primarily involves symptomatic medication. Patients can take some oral medications, supplemented with vitamins, and pay attention to self-care, proper diet, and avoid cold foods. We hope that uterine fibroid patients can recover as soon as possible! Thank you!
