Hello ma'am and welcome.

Go through any medical textbook or journal or registered site and you will find hysterectomy to be the only treatment with best results for uterine fibroids. All other treatment options are only temporary and will almost certainly result in a recurrence or relapse of the fibroids. But it is your personal choice and other than the treatments you are receiving a few other options are an MRI-guided focused ultrasound surgery (FUS), uterine artery embolization, myolysis, laparoscopic myomectomy, and few other minor surgical procedures may help temporarily.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
