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 have a 37x15x14 mm oval-shaped T1T2 hypointense submucosal fibroid with polypoidal extension into the endocervical canal. My doctor recommended surgery, but I'm wondering if there are any homeopathy treatments that could work instead since I want to have another baby and already have a 2-year-old. Should I go ahead with the surgery or try other options first?

surgery is option only.

Dove shampoo and conditioner are safe too if you want to go for something milder.
