Patient's question:
I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids a few months ago. I don't want to have surgery and want to ask if uterine fibroids can be treated with medication?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids currently have no specific treatment drugs. If the diameter of the uterine fibroid is greater than 5 centimeters and there are significant clinical symptoms, surgical treatment is still recommended. If the uterine fibroid is small and there are no significant clinical symptoms, conservative treatment can be considered, taking some traditional Chinese medicine orally, which has a certain effect, mainly with blood-activating and blood-stasis-reducing drugs. Pay attention to dietary regulation, avoid foods high in estrogen, such as eggs, honey, tofu, milk, etc. During conservative drug treatment, regular follow-up is necessary.
