Natural ways to Shrink Fibroids

I'd really like to aoid chemical drugs and shrink my two 6 cm fibroids + with natural therapy. i have already had surgery to take out a 15cm diameter fibroids with a big ovaric cistis underneath.

At the moment I am taking birth control pills, but they are not vey useful in eradicating the problem.

I wish someone had told me this earlier.  This is for everyone who has fibroids.

I had such horrible fibroids that my gynecologist advised hysterectomy to me for over 15 years.  Mother, Aunt and sister all had them too.  I wanted a natural way to shrink them and tried many things over the years.  The bleeding was so bad that I became very anemic and at one time was so bad that I had to have an emergency blood transfusion.  It was the most miserable 15 years of my life.

Toward menopause, in my last year of periods, I read about how women with fibroids have low magnesium.  I knew that when I took magnesium pills for helping with constipation, that it helped a little with the heavy bleeding.

But there was the problem of getting enough magnesium without the loose bowels effect.    

I read that if you applied magnesium oil onto your skin, that it was better absorbed than the digestive system, thus avoiding the bad effect of loose bowels and more magnesium into your body.   It was only a very small amount that gets absorbed through the pills I was taking, so I didn't really see much of a positive effect on the heavy bleeding and fibroids.

I did research on the internet and found a few places where I could buy topical magnesium and tried it out.  By that time, I was near menapause but my daughter at 31 yrs old was having fibroids and heavy bleeding.  I told her that even though it was too late for me that at least she could possibly avoid the misery I went through.   

She sprayed and rubbed the magnesium oil on her legs every day for a month before her period and noticed that her periods were more normal.

I couldn't believe that it made such a difference, but was overjoyed that we had found something that finally worked on shrinking the fibroids.  The only thing to remember is that you have to continue to do the magnesium oil, because when she got lazy and stopped for awhile, her fibroids and heavy bleeding came back.   

I hope that my story can help at least one person from suffering with these terrible fibroids and avoid surgery.  My heart goes out to all those who have this health problem.  I don't understand why the magnesium oil works, but maybe if enough women are helped by it, then maybe some scientists will do research and understand it better.   In the meantime, if you do decide to try this, give it at least 2 months to absorb into your system to see if you have improvement.  It shouldn't take any longer than that.  The good news is that it's low cost and easy to do.  Good luck to you!  

So I am trying to naturally reduce my fibroids. I been seeing a naturopath that is helping me, but I also am seeking other ways to heal .

Have any of you tried acupunture or holistic kinesiology?

Also, where do you order DIM and VITEX from? Can someone please share a website with you? I would be extremely grateful .

My surgery is scheduled for April 12th because I am currently in school and had to take a semester off school to deal with my anxiety about the surgery...for some reason I had big issues with being cut open like a c-section to remove my fibroids and it has messed with my tranquility a lot.

Are any of you doing any sort of meditations and visualisations to help as well? I found out that fibroids are related to the second chakra, so I am trying to find meditations to make it work better or be cleared - with the hopes of helping the healing process.

Thank you in advance for sharing your experience. Hugs!
