I have a large 13 cm fibroid on the posterior wall of my uterus but my periods are normal should I consider surgery or try homeopathic medicine first? I'm worried about the size and not sure what the best option is

For a fibroid of that size (13 cm), surgical intervention is generally recommended. While homeopathic medicine might offer some relief, it's unlikely to shrink a fibroid of this size significantly, and it's essential to rule out other potential causes of your symptoms
