Patient's question:
I have a sister who has uterine fibroids and she wants to be treated through Traditional Chinese Medicine. Can moxibustion be used to treat uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are a relatively common gynecological tumor in women, primarily caused by abnormal fibrosis of the uterine smooth muscle. Moxibustion has little significant effect on treating uterine fibroids, but it is quite effective for treating pelvic inflammation. If the size of the uterine fibroid is greater than five centimeters, it is recommended to undergo surgery for removal in a timely manner. The above information can be used as a reference.
