Patient's question:
Is it normal for a uterine fibroid to grow 0.4 cm in half a year?Doctor's answer:
Hello, timely treatment is needed. Currently, the commonly used GnRH-a in clinical practice includes leuprorelin (Lupron), goserelin (Zoladex), and triptorelin (Decapeptyl), among others. GnRH-a should not be used for long-term continuous administration and is typically used only for preoperative pretreatment, generally for 3 to 6 months, to avoid severe menopausal symptoms caused by low estrogen levels. It can also be supplemented with a small dose of estrogen to counteract this side effect.
