What are fibroids? Uterine fibroids (also known as fibromyomas, leimyomas or myomas) are growths made of smooth muscle cells that appear in the uterus during childbearing years. The growths are not malignant nor are they related to cancer, but they are classified as tumors. They are extremely common and often go unnoticed by many women and often shrink after menopause. Uterine fibroids occur more frequently in black women but are almost never seen in a woman less than 20 years old.
Many women find it extremely difficult to get answers on what causes their fibroids, as doctors don’t really know. Scientists have linked fibroids to excess estrogen, but apart from that, they can tell you what type of fibroid you have, where it’s located and how large it is, but this information is not going to be very useful for shrinking it.
If your fibroids are small, and your doctor tells you to wait and see what happens (watchful waiting) this can be very frustrating. Mostly because for every woman whose fibroids are as big as a six-month pregnancy, there was also a time when her fibroids were small, and had very little symptoms!
Doctors are great for diagnosis, but are you sure that you want to take on the risks of side effects from drugs, or the complications of surgery? The problem with both is that they do not address the root cause of fibroids, which I believe is a hormone imbalance and excessive toxicity.
A hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus, and is believed to be a permanent solution to fibroids. Unfortunately, a hysterectomy is a major surgical procedure, which can have devastating effects on your long-term health, so it’s not to be taken lightly. and surgery, which is a risky option, as in rare occasions, surgery can damage the uterus or other nearby organs. There are rarer cases of fibroids growing in the uterine cavity after a hysterectomy.
Fortunately here are a variety of different therapies that women can choose from, depending on the symptoms and the severity of the fibroids. Herbal supplements, such as FibroidClear can reduce inflammation as well as shrinking fibroids and regulating hormone levels. There’s body cleansing, which helps to get rid of the toxins that cause fibroids to grow, and accelerate the effect of any herbal remedies for fibroids.
