I have two fibroids around 2.8 cm and 2.7 cm in size and really don't want to go through surgery. Is it possible to treat them completely with just medicines or are there other non-surgical options that might work for me

Yes, it's possible to treat uterine fibroids non-surgically, including through medication and other procedures. Your fibroids, being around 2.8 and 2.7 cm, fall within a size range where non-surgical options are often considered.
