      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Other design features: CBC, Lipid profile, kidney &amp; Liver function tests, FBS &amp; hormonal evaluation will be performed before and after the treatment. Ultrasound examination will be performed before and after the treatment for determining of the number, size, and site of the myoma and also size of the uterus. Pictorial Blood Loss Assessment Chart (PBLAC) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) will be filled before and after the treatment, Randomization description: A randomization list was provided by statistic using randomization website (block randomization with block size of 6) and allocation was performed by a third party not directly connected with the trial, Blinding description: As soon as the patient is entered into the study, the treatment code is determined from the randomly generated sequence and a unique identification code is assigned to the patient. Random codes are stored in the main project management unit of the study and are inqueried through the clinical caregiver and the relevant intervention will be applied to the new patient. For this purpose, after determining the patient eligibility, the clinical caregiver, inquiries from the project management unit and announces the patient information and receives the patient's assigned identification and treatment code. Therefore, the clinical caregiver will not be aware of the allocative treatment until the patient is admitted.
The drug Medicine packages are given to the clinical caregiver by the code they are registered with. All placebo tablets are provided by Hakim Pharmaceutical Company (Tehran, Iran), approved by the Iranian Food and Drug Administration. The appearance of placebo tablets is in color, shape and size quite similar to simvastatin tablets, which cannot be detected by patients, clinical care giver and researcher.</study_design>
