Fibroids: Non-Surgical Treatment

After being told that I had 10 fibroids just before the pandemic, it became a perilous and slow journey figuring out what would be the best method to remove them (I had a prior operation that prevented me from directly going into surgery).

I found a video that instructed I use Bladderwrack, Irish Moss and Sarsaparilla and put them each into 500g size one capsules. (Take one of each 3x a day. Overall 9 in a day). Which had said that it would make "your fibroids fall out". Of course skeptical but being at the end of my rope and in constant pain 24 hours a day, I figured what was the harm?

They did work though. Especially in easing my pain tremendously. I take it a week before I have my period and then during my 8-10 day heavy period. I also have to mention that I would be taking Ferrous for the iron deficiency that was prescribed by my GP.

I'm on my third month now and I am seeing amazing results. I had the biggest "blood clot and or fibroid" that I have ever bled in my life, the swelling in my stomach has also gone down. I don't know if that's a coincidence or not. I will also say that I received a UAE operation but that didn't work, and I waited six months for some results, only to be told by my doctor that there was only a 1% reduction in size.

I hope that if you see this and get consultation or advice from your GP/doctors... or you're just hoping for something. I hope this will be the something that helps. I'm not sure how well it works with all types of fibroids but I wish you luck. It is tedious but I really hope it helps you.

As for me, I still need to speak to my doctor and have some scans done to see if it's worked on a majority of them, or I will have to have the unavoidable, complicated surgery that will very well result in me having a hysterectomy.

I’ve had every procedure and surgery out there! I’ve had fibroids so to I feel your pain. I had three of them the size of a grapefruit. I had the myectomy surgery with the robot assisted da Vinci in 2009 and it helped tremendously -

I want From heavy periods 6-8 to 2-3 days of bleeding.

There’s hope!
