Dealing with Fibroids and the scare of Surgery

I am 35 years old , and found out a month ago that I have 4 large fibroids and a few tiny ones. 8,7,5,4 cm. The thought of surgery scares me. I haven’t explored any other options yet.

Surgery is okay....just tell them you want to be opened and not have it done with vaginal assist...so many people are struggling after having fibroids are hysterectomy with vaginal assist...many are ending up with prolapse and the need to have an additional surgery.

Smile, I don’t want to do surgery at all. The thought of the unknown freaks me out. I was thinking of detoxing and changing my diet🙆‍♀️

By the way I had fibroids also and had a partial hysterectomy laparoscopy through the abdomen. It is better this way. God bless. Deb
