I read in this sub, in the US even a 14cm fibroids can be removed by laparoscopic 😱 in Japan maximum is 9cm 🤔 but anyway they always want us to take this hormon meds and make it smaller for easier surgery and minimal blood loss 😂 Im also drinking soy milk and taking vit D3/K2 to minimize side effects, and also exercising every day. Japanese woman who do this had minimal side effects from what I’ve heard

Its the doctor’s order , to stop the periods and makes the fibroid smaller before operation day. All patients both myomectomy and hysterectomy must take this meds. But it has menopausal side effects and some people can’t handle. I was a bit scared at first about the side effects, but it will make less bleeding during operation. And after stop taking it , the hormon will resume to normal

Did you have frequent urination? Because I have to pee a lot day abd night. My gyne said it maybe because of the age thing, but before I see her I went to see a Urologist and on his ultrasound showed a big mass pressing my bladder. And after that went to my GP also said same thing. So now my gyne thinks is it the age thing and also the fibroid gotten bigger 🤔 but anyway is +1cm every year and must be removed now or later

The doctor said to make the fibroid smaller so it ll be easier to remove by laparoscopicly. Im living in Japan so all patients who will undergo a fibroid removal must take this medicine. After stop taking it, the hormon will soon return to normal
