Patient's question:
I recently found out I have uterine fibroids, but I don't know how to treat this condition, so I want to ask how are uterine fibroids treated?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are generally related to the estrogen levels in the body. If the fibroids are small or do not affect the menstrual cycle, they usually do not require special treatment. However, if the fibroids are large, grow rapidly during close observation, or repeatedly affect the menstrual cycle, surgical treatment is generally necessary. Since uterine fibroids are related to estrogen levels, it is recommended to avoid foods high in estrogen in daily life.
