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.

I'm six months pregnant and my doctor has prescribed me Pan 40 tablets. I'm really worried if it's safe to take them during pregnancy. If not, what other options do I have?

I've had a right adnexal cyst since 2021, and the size keeps changing it was 86x54x40 mm in August 2021, then 71x39x53 mm in September, 72x42x55 mm in October, and 59x45x71 mm in November. By September 2022, it grew to 103x70x52 mm and now extends into the POD. Should I try medicine first or go for surgery? If surgery is needed, would it be open or laparoscopic? Also, what's the approximate cost for this treatment?

surgery opinion is advised to the patient.

I've been taking Meprate, and I'm concerned about some side effects. Last month, I had really bad pain on the lower right side of my stomach, but it went away after my period was over. Could this be something serious or affect my uterus in some way? I'm a bit worried.

no it will not affect your uterus
