Patient's question:
I went to the hospital for a check-up. The results said I have uterine fibroids. What are the harms of having uterine fibroids, and how should they be treated? Where should I go for treatment?Doctor's answer:
Chemotherapy often fails to achieve recovery, instead it may slow down the progression of the disease and worsen the patient's suffering. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Chinese herbal medicine have long been used in clinical practice, with many unique and insightful treatment methods. Currently, some of the more mature Chinese herbal medicines for anti-chemotherapy include medical-grade reishi spore powder and reishi extracts. These are a kind of reishi preparation refined more than 10:1, containing fungal polysaccharides and triterpenic acids, which can enhance the body's own anti-tumor immune ability. Uterine fibroids are a condition that is difficult to alleviate. Patients should maintain a positive mindset and face it with optimism, as only this can boost their confidence in combating uterine fibroids and believe that recovery is attainable.
