This blog is a chronicle of my quest to shrink my fibroids and enhance my fertility, and share what I have learned along the way. I wish I had known some of these things when I originally was diagnosed with fibroids years ago, so I hope others can learn from my experience. Some of my links are affiliate links that pay me a small commission on any purchases made.

study on fibroid growth rates
This interesting study looked at fibroid growth rates. Typical growth rate was 9% every 6 months, but in 7% of cases they shrunk more than 20%. Unfortunately they don't seem to give any info about what might have been different about those 7%. Also interesting data about growth rate differences in white and black women.

Hello,
I read a very interesting article on a website called "healthherbs.com" about fibroids and other benign growths and I want to try some of the suggestions but I wanted to hear what you might do. Have you visited this site before?
Thanks!

Thanks for the comment!
I hadn't seen the site before, but found this article: http://www.healthherbs.com/conditionitem.php?id=114
Lots of ideas in there. I have heard of using a suppository or bolus in the vagina (various websites mention it) but haven't tried it myself. I agree with the idea of eating a more alkaline diet, personally I take Green Magma to help with this.
I've tried many of the supplements listed but boy that is a VERY long list, it would be expensive to take all of them!
Let us know which ones you try and how they work!
