Since family is completed, it is best to do hysterectomy because fibroid is seen in women with high Oestrogen hormone. Women with high Oestrogen in their body can be at higher risk of Uterus cancer after menopause. If uterus is removed there is zero chance of this cancer. Also painful fibroid may not be completely cured by medicine and surgery is the ultimate cure. For safety and excellent relief, surgery is the best option.
