Hormone treatment

Non-surgical method for treating fibroids. Hormone therapy can temporarily alleviate the symptoms in patients who are unable to receive any other organ transport therapy. In some cases, the fibroids may shrink to such an extent that they can be treated with a minimally invasive intervention or by means of MRgFUS.

Advantages:

Nicht-chirurgische Methode zur Behandlung von Myomen. Bei Patientinnen, die keiner anderen organerhaltenen Therapie zugeführt werden können, kann die Hormongabe die Symptome zeitweilig lindern. In einigen Fällen können die Myome so stark schrumpfen, dass sie durch einen minimal-invasiven Eingriff oder mittels MRgFUS behandelt werden können.

Disadvantages:

This treatment may become very expensive over an extended period of time, GnRH may cause medical conditions similar to those resulting from the menopause such as hot flushes, mood swings, loss of libido or osteoporosis and the symptoms may reoccur following treatment.
