How should uterine fibroids be treated?

Patient's question:

Multiple uterine fibroids. There are intramural and intracavity ones, the size of the fibroids is between 3cm and 5cm? The local hospital has to remove the uterus?

Doctor's answer:

This symptom is prone to uterine fibroids. If there are no obvious symptoms, conservative and careful observation is sufficient. If surgery is performed on prone fibroids, it is likely to result in a complete hysterectomy. If a myomectomy is done, many small fibroids may not be completely removed, and postoperative recurrence is possible. You do not need surgical treatment for now. If you endure it until menopause, most fibroids will shrink on their own. Medication also has no significant effect. As long as you pay close attention to careful observation and undergo regular follow-up examinations, if there is rapid recent growth, accompanied by pain or increased menstrual volume leading to anemia, surgical removal can be considered. In addition to immediate treatment, patients with uterine fibroids also need to pay attention to maintaining a proper diet and ensuring adequate nutrition in daily life. I hope the above answer can assist you. Thank you.
