Can moxibustion remove uterine fibroids?

Patient's question:

Hello, can moxibustion remove uterine fibroids? Do uterine fibroids always require surgery? Can they be left untreated?

Doctor's answer:

Uterine fibroids are a type of benign solid tumor, so using medication or some physical treatments may not be effective. Women with uterine fibroids do not necessarily have to undergo surgery. If the fibroid grows on the surface of the uterus and protrudes outward, it generally will not affect menstruation and will not have a significant impact on the body, so it can be left untreated. Conversely, if the diameter of the fibroid is less than five centimeters, surgery may be required.
