It depends: It depends on the problems it is causing and your general health as well as the resources available in your area.Embolization can be done by an interventional radiologist in many cases or hysteroscopic resection is another option.There r drugs which can shrink fibroids but they do tend to grow back rapidly when the drugs are stopped.Fibroids shrink after menopause so,observation is also an option.
