Objective.  Effect of isopropanolic  Cimicifuga racemosa  extract (iCR) on uterine fibroid size compared with tibolone.  Method.  The randomized, double-blind, controlled study in China enrolled 244 patients aged 40–60 years with menopausal symptoms (Kupperman Menopause Index ≥ 15). The participants were treated with either iCR of 40 mg crude drug/day ( N  = 122) or tibolone 2.5 mg/day ( N  = 122) orally for 3 months in 2004. Now, we investigated the subset of all women ( N  = 62) with at least one uterine fibroid at onset of treatment for the effect of iCR ( N  = 34) on fibroid size compared with tibolone ( N  = 28) by transvaginal ultrasonography.  Results.  The median myoma volume decreased upon iCR by as much as −30% ( P  = 0.016) but increased upon tibolone by +4.7%. The percentage of volume change, mean diameter change and geometric mean diameter change of the iCR group compared to tibolone were statistically significant ( P  = 0.016, 0.021, 0.016 respectively).  Conclusion.  Our results suggest that iCR (Remifemin) is a valid herbal medicinal product in patients with uterine myomas as it provides adequate relief from menopausal symptoms and inhibits growth of the myomas in contrast to tibolone.
