Orgametril (linestrenol) has a progestogenic effect (similar to the natural hormone progesterone, which regulates the menstrual cycle) and in some patients may not inhibit the growth of fibroids and even promote their enlargement, especially if the fibroid is hormone-dependent. If you observe rapid tumor growth despite increasing the dose, it is worth reporting it to your doctor urgently, as it may be a signal that the therapy is ineffective.

Fibroids that reach a size of more than 10 cm are often considered for surgical treatment, and in some cases they are indeed eligible for hysterectomy, especially when they cause severe symptoms (bleeding, pain, pressure). Half a year of waiting for a therapeutic decision is a long time – consider contacting your gynaecologist again, and if possible, visiting another specialist or urgently if your symptoms are getting worse.
