What range of uterine fibroids can be treated with minimally invasive procedures?

Patient's question:

Doctor,
My mother currently has uterine fibroids. Due to the late discovery, the hospital examination revealed that the largest tumor has grown to over 30 centimeters. Could you please tell me if minimally invasive treatment is still possible in this case? My mother is not very old, and she does not want to undergo conventional surgery. If minimally invasive treatment is not an option, are there any other methods to remove the fibroids? Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you mentioned: uterine fibroids, adenomyosis, uterine adenomyosis, and dysfunctional uterine bleeding are harmful to women, mainly manifested as heavy menstrual bleeding, severe anemia, infertility, infection, and compression symptoms. For patients with mild symptoms, if the size of the uterus does not exceed the size of a 12-week pregnancy, surgery is not necessary. It is only necessary to have a hospital check-up every three months and pay attention to the changes in the fibroids at any time. Especially for patients close to menopause, as the fibroids may naturally shrink after menopause, conservative treatment is generally recommended.
