Is surgery the only way to cure uterine fibroids?

Patient's question:

A few days ago, I went to the hospital and found out I have uterine fibroids. The test report showed the size as 6.0×5.0×5.5cm. I want to ask, is this considered large? Is there any danger? Do uterine fibroids have to be surgically treated to be cured? Do uterine fibroids have to be surgically treated to be cured?

Doctor's answer:

The fibroids are quite large, but they will never pose a danger to the soul. A small portion of patients with fibroids may see the fibroids disappear on their own after menopause. This is because fibroids are highly influenced by hormones, and after menopause, the excretion of hormones significantly weakens, leading to the spontaneous disappearance of a very small number of fibroids. Nowadays, minimally invasive surgery, such as laparoscopic surgery, can easily address this issue.
In addition, during the treatment of uterine fibroids, besides timely medical intervention, the patient's dietary condition and mental state are also crucial. The patient must always maintain a positive mood and follow a proper diet to avoid unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery of uterine fibroids.
