Are there medications to treat fibroids?

  No drug has been proven effective for the long-term treatment of uterine fibroids. There is no denying that some drugs are used for preoperative management. But so far, there is no drug internationally recognized for the long-term treatment of fibroids. Some drugs, such as GnRH-a (Noread, Inhibiton, etc.), Mifepristone, and SERM can be used for preoperative management of fibroids or for perimenopausal management. The purpose of this is to improve the chance of minimally invasive surgery, but it has also been reported in the literature that minimally invasive surgery for uterine fibroids after such treatment can increase the chance of myoma leakage, so the need for pretreatment should be decided according to the clinical situation.  Let’s go back to the domestic mess. Fibroids are a common disease that may be visible in 1/3 of women, not many have symptoms, and most of them will not need to be treated and regular checkups and observation will be sufficient. However, I understand the mentality of our patients, most of whom have the disease and always hope that they can solve the problem without surgery and some medicine. It so happens that such a mentality is exploited by some manufacturers, so there are so many Chinese medicine preparations to treat fibroids in China. You have to look at the information provided by the manufacturer, each and every effective, or there is no way to promote it, anyway, the people eat this drug, and will not eat what the big problem, the money, they do not care how your final results, anyway, most of the final discontinuation of the drug.
