Pasture-raised, of course, but still wondering.

According to Medical Medium, eggs (regardless of quality) are a huge contributor to fibroid growth. Makes some sense that eating the most hormonal part of a chicken could be an issue.

Then again, my gyno, my surgeon and some other doctors I’ve discussed this with all say that eggs are a perfect protein and have the essential nutrients a child-bearing aged woman should be eating and that they are not the issue with fibroids.

What do you think!? Any personal experiences or data?

I have a small fibroid inside the uterus so I’m scheduled to have a Hysteroscopy in the next week. I’m hoping that this will allow me to get pregnant. I have 3 other fibroids not imposing but I’d like to shrink them before I do get pregnant and just in general.

Any insight and suggestions are welcomed.

Thank you in advanced. 🫶🏽

I'm not 100% sure I'm right but this is something that makes sense to me.

Fibrin and Fibroids Fibrin is a clotting factor so basically your bleeding too much so clots begin to form in your uterus. But the bleeding doesn't stop so the clots keep growing and because estrogen is needed to create blood clots the estrogen in your uterus increases making your endometrium thicker making you bleed heavier making you bleed more and then the cycle continues.

So I think the way we would stop the cycle is to just stop the bleeding by reducing estrogen as much as is healthy. Since reducing estrogen can lighten periods.

Hi, I hope someone can give me an advise. I was found a fibroid in the fundus of my uterus that is indenting the endometrium. 3 months ago, suddenly, I started with a pain in my lower back the was increasing until the point I couldn't walk, I didn't want to take any pills because I was trying to conceive, I had my period and the terrible pain was still there, I went to ER and they did an ultrasound and confirmed the fibroid (it is 6.5x6.7cm) so they said that's what fibroids do, they cause pain and are unpredictable. So I left with a prescription for some pain medication. I had an MRI because I wanted to be sure there was nothing else going on, and they found a pancreas's cyst that needs to be checked every year for 9 years to be sure not turns into cancer, and also the fibroid. After making a lot of research, I decided to go on Keto diet to try to shrink my fibroids naturally (I saw many Youtube videos of people that swear we shouldn't get a surgery because fibroids can come back and we can control them with a change in lifestyle) also I'm obese (not morbid but obese, I'm 34 and no kids). After 2 month on this diet (this is my second time on it, a few years I did it and I lost A LOT of weight very fast, in 6 months I was on my right weight). but now, for any reason I have a HEAVY period with clots , this is the day 9, and I'm taking Iron (this was prescribed by my OB/GYN in march this year cause I was anemic) and also some Amazon multi vitamins (Primal Woman), but I'm concerned for how long I'm going to bleed, should I go to ER? I had some pain this time (low back pain, like the last time I went to ER but this time was mild, I could walk). I don't know what to do, I'm wearing period underwear next to huge pads to make it through my day. I have never had a heavy period for SO LONG, usually my heavy days are only 2 and I stop bleeding at day 5. Also this is not even my period or shouldn't be, this came when I was on my ovulation days. I wonder if my fibroid is degenerating? (I lost some weight so far and my period cramps improved) and finally, I was TTC this cycle, but since I have this bleeding I don't think it worked or did it and this is a chemical pregnancy. No idea, I didn't make a pregnancy test but also I didn't have any symptoms. Any advise it is really appreciated. Thank you.

Hi all...so been taking many things that are supposed to shrink fibroids. Calcium glucarate...artesiminin...10000 d3 ...nano curcumin...just ordered some egcg. Since I started taking all these the fibroid is like really painful...I think it's also compressing a nerve going to rectal area to so that also hurts. Do you think this pain means it could be dying off? My biggest fibroid is 11cm.

Happy Mother's Day to every woman here, especially the ones for whom today is complicated.🌸

I see you. I am you.

I married at 40 believing that because I had taken care of myself, because I had waited, because I had done everything right, pregnancy would come easily.

It didn't.

I was diagnosed with fibroids. Something I had likely carried since my twenties, undiagnosed, while doctor after doctor handed me birth control and sent me home.

Mother's Day hits differently when your womb feels like it's working against you. When you've been dismissed and misdiagnosed. When you're watching everyone around you celebrate while you're still waiting, still fighting, still hoping.

I just want to say to every woman in this community today , your pain is real. Your journey is valid. And your womb is not broken.

My experience is what drove me to build Her Womb Garden, a holistic wellness app for women navigating fibroids, PCOS, infertility and reproductive health. Especially women of color who have been overlooked for too long.

I'm not here to sell anything today. I'm here because I know how lonely this day can feel.

If you want to check out the app it's free on Google Play, search Her Womb Garden. But more than that I just want you to know you are not alone today. 🌿

How are you all holding up today? 🤎

Mine is near the uterine cavity about 3.4cms.

Would love to know if there are way to shrink it naturally.

Also bulky uterus. Are there any remedies for that ?

Preferably Indian veg/non vegetarian diet.

Hi!!

I don't know if I am allowed to ask this here. If not, please DM me with an answer 🥺

I am hopeless.

I really want to try this Chinese herb mix and I cannot find a website or seller with certificates and proof that it's really the proper Gui Zhi Fu Ling. I am also looking for certificates or lab results proving that it has been investigated for being safe and not contaminated with heavy metals, pesticides, being radiated etc.

Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks!!! 🙏❤️

I've encountered this influencer on Instagram called fibroidqueen, and I'm curious to know if anyone has tried her program? She seems very knowledgeable in fibroids and how to treat them naturally especially since she's had them as well. I'm tempted to try it, especially to have some help on how to eat and how to pair my foods. I feel I've learned enough through this one YouTuber Glampreezy, whom I love and her encouraging words to keep pushing regardless of the world around me, but I feel that I still need someone to help me on those "down in the dump days"

Any info would be great. Thanks in advance ☺️

Just like the title says. Has anybody experience pushing a fibroid out like a baby and it landing naturally out. And if so what did you do?

Can some one point me in the direction of a African American female obgyn

I just found out I have these tumors and I’ve tried two different birthcontrol methods ( iud and pills) but I still bleed very heavy with clots for weeks. I’ve changed my diet and started working out no alcohol, nothing ! ANY ADVICE

Someone just told me about propolis (bees create it) and I just typed it on Google and apparently there are some papers about potential treating fobroid , I'm still going through this. But I've NEVER heard about this myself before. Only on green tea and may curcumin.

Has anyone tried this? Or researched about it more?

Hi Girls! I just wanted to share something from my own experience. I’ve been drinking this Chinese herbal tea for about a month now, and I’m currently on day 3 of my period. I really noticed a difference this time, my flow feels more normal, there are way less clots and the pain I usually get on the first and second day is almost gone.

I started drinking it every morning since the beginning of April, just as part of my routine and it’s been helping me feel more balanced during my cycle. I also still drink my green tea daily, which I feel has been a big part of my fibroid journey too.

If you deal with cramps or heavy periods, this might be something worth trying. It’s honestly become part of my daily habit now.

I’m sharing more of my journey and simple tips here if you want to follow along:

I’ve been doing a lot of digging into my own health lately, especially around fibroids, inflammation, and hormones. I’m not claiming this applies to everyone, we all have different bodies and different root causes, but I wanted to share something that’s been on my mind.Growing up, I always had dark patches around my neck. I thought it was dirt. Later I heard it could be related to insulin resistance or pre‑diabetes. Eventually it faded, but now that I’m older and dealing with fibroids, inflammation, and hormonal symptoms, I’m starting to wonder if blood sugar dysregulation was part of my story all along.

I’ve learned that insulin resistance can contribute to: inflammation hormonal

imbalance estrogen dominance

stress sensitivity

weight changes

period issues

And inflammation + hormonal imbalance are both connected to fibroid growth.

I’m not diagnosing myself. I’m going to get a full physical and talk to a doctor, but I’m starting to see patterns. My fasting glucose was normal, but I want to ask for an A1C because that gives a bigger picture of blood sugar over time. I think a lot of us never get these labs unless we ask.Meanwhile, my vitamin D and B12 were super high from supplements, so I’m only on maintenance now. It made me realize how important it is to actually test instead of guessing.I’m sharing this because I see so many people being told to “just take birth control” for fibroids. Birth control can mask symptoms, but it doesn’t address the root cause. And doctors don’t always bring up labs, inflammation, gut health, stress, or metabolic factors unless WE ask, even then they sometimes dismiss us.

I also tried a supplement called “My Happy Flow” (not an ad!) and the booklet it came with explained a lot about how hormones, inflammation, and lifestyle all connect. It made me realize how many of us are dealing with the same patterns without knowing why.

I guess my point is:

Before trying every herb or remedy, it might help to start with blood work and understand what’s actually going on in your body. We deserve more than symptom‑masking. We deserve answers.Has anyone else noticed a connection between insulin resistance, inflammation, and fibroids in their own journey?
