Large fibroids

2 Replies

Hi, I have three large fibroids which are causing problems. In the past I took 2 courses of Esmya and they shrunk them considerably resulting in no problems for about 18 months on each occasion. I am trying to avoid a hysterectomy as I am 53 and hoping they will stink when I go through the menopause. As Esmya can no longer be prescribed does anyone know of any other alternative non invasive treatments. Thankyou
