Hormone therapy can soften and shrink tumors and relieve pain in some patients, but long-term use can aggravate the imbalance of hormones in the human body, and cause mild masculinization side effects such as oligomenorrhea, amenorrhea, and hirsutism, as well as recurrence after discontinuation of the drug. Therefore, this method should only be considered when the symptoms are severe and affect normal work and life.
