Abstract: Uterine fibroids are benign diseases with high incidence and unknown pathogenesis.Currently,fibroid excavation or hysterectomy is the most commonly used treatment,but for women who require conservative treatment or with fertility requirements,there is still no optimal treatment option.At present,GnRH agonists/antagonists,selective progesterone receptor antagonists,levonorgestrel sustained release,uterine artery embolization,high-intensity focused ultrasound and other non-traditional surgical treatments provide new treatment options for conservative treatment of uterine fibroids from different angles.
