Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I have just discovered that I have uterine fibroids, and they are currently about 2 cm in size. The doctor didn't prescribe any medication for me, just told me to have regular check-ups. I want to know if uterine fibroids can disappear on their own, or how to control them from growing further?Doctor's answer:
The condition of a patient with uterine fibroids is not severe, as the size of the fibroids is small and their location is not overly special. It is possible to postpone treatment for the time being and undergo physical check-ups every three or five months to monitor the growth of the fibroids. If the uterine fibroids grow too rapidly but have not yet reached the threshold for surgical removal, it is recommended to maintain a low-fat diet in daily meals, pay attention to regular sleep patterns, and prioritize regular physical exercise. These measures can help slow down the growth rate of the fibroids.
