Predictive factor for volume reduction of uterine fibroids after short-term use of ulipristal acetate

Conclusion An independent factor that can affect the volume reduction after a 3-month UPA therapy in women with uterine fibroids was the number of fibroids. This indicates that UPA might be ineffective for volume reduction in cases with multiple leiomyomas. However, future prospective studies comparing solitary and multiple leiomyomas for response to UPA are necessary.
