Patient's question:
Uterine fibroids for two years, still growing continuously. Currently 36 years old, how should the treatment be? Local doctors say surgery will cause complications and suggest using an IUD for treatment. I don't know what kind of IUD this is. Is it true that the most effective treatment for uterine fibroids is using an IUD?Doctor's answer:
Cancer is a systemic disease, and treatment should also be evaluated comprehensively. Combining multiple different therapies will yield more significant treatment effects. Radiotherapy, for example, has certain side effects on the body, such as decreased appetite, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, or constipation, among many toxic and adverse reactions. It must be coordinated with traditional Chinese medicine's dynamic therapies and the use of Chinese herbal medicine for treatment. Currently, the more mature anti-radiotherapy and chemotherapy Chinese medicines include medical-grade reishi spore powder, reishi extracts, and others. These Chinese medicines have the functions of invigorating the body, dispelling pathogens, replenishing qi, and nourishing blood. They can reduce the body's immunity, alleviate the toxic and adverse effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and Western medicine treatments, reduce patients' suffering, kill residual cancer cells, and improve quality of life. In addition, during the treatment of uterine fibroids, in addition to medication, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also crucial.
