What are the treatment standards for uterine fibroids becoming larger

Patient's question:

How big does a uterine fibroid need to be to require treatment?

Doctor's answer:

If the uterine fibroid is generally larger than 5 cm, surgical treatment is recommended. However, some patients may prefer not to undergo surgery and can opt for conservative drug treatment. But in your case, it indicates that the uterine fibroid is continuously growing and at a rapid pace. It is recommended that you choose a professional hospital for surgical treatment.
There is now a surgical method called laparoscopic and hysteroscopic combined treatment for uterine fibroids. This approach preserves the reproductive organs to the greatest extent while avoiding open surgery, with only a few centimeter incisions. Postoperative healing is fast, and the treatment effect is excellent.
