I am having uterine fibroids as per diagnostic reports. So what to do right now? Their size is 35 x 29 mm approx. And other one is 18 mm diameter.

Question

If you do not have any symptoms like excessive bleeding or irregular bleeding or pain during periods , then the fibroids can be managed conservatively. The size of the fibroids is not important rather it is the symptoms of the patient that will define the treatment.If the fibroids have been picked up as a routine ultrasound finding,  then you can follow up with regular ulrasounds every 6 months to make sure that there is no abnormal increase in the size of the fibroids. If the fibroids cause excessive bleeding , excess pain (which cannot be managed with medicines) or increase abnormally in size then only  you need to undergo surgery. Also the fibroids tend to decrease in size after menopause.
