How should medication be used for a 3 cm fibroid?

Patient's question:

On October 29, 2013, a 3 cm fibroid was discovered. Last year's check did not detect it, and there are no discomforts.

Doctor's answer:

Uterine fibroids, also known as leiomyomas, are the most common benign tumors of the female reproductive system. Clinically, methods such as Guizhi Fuling capsules, Gongtuo Xiao, and Baixiao Dan are often tried to treat them. The goal is only to suppress the function of the pituitary and ovaries, reduce estrogen levels, and thereby inhibit their further growth. The effect is not very significant. Generally, for small fibroids (<3cm), if there are no symptoms, observation and close follow-up can be adopted, with B-ultrasound reexamination every 3-6 months.
