Fibroid: Fact, Symptoms, Prevention And Treatment by ogbra(m): 12:06pm On Jun 04, 2016
FIBROID  

A fibroid is a non-cancerous growth of the womb or uterus.

They are also called uterine myomas, fibromyomas or leiomyomas. Their size can vary. Some are the same size as a pea and some can be as big as a melon. Fibroids can increase in size, decrease in size or even go away with time. They can occur anywhere in the womb and are named according to where they grow.

What are the causes of fibroids?

 

A fibroid is like an overgrowth of smooth muscle cells. (The womb is mainly made of smooth muscle.)

It is not clear why they develop. Fibroids are sensitive to oestrogen, the hormone that is made in the ovary.

Fibroids tend to swell when levels of oestrogen are high - for example, during pregnancy. They also shrink when oestrogen levels are low - after the menopause. This shrinkage of the fibroids after the menopause may be delayed if you take hormone replacement therapy (HRT).

Do you know of anyone that has suffered from this ailment, we do, let’s hear the experiences of Mrs. Favour Urhirhoghene      and Mrs. Paul Gift Ojone.

How do you take care of Fibroids?

     Tranexamic acid is taken 3-4 times a day, for the duration of each period.         It works by reducing the breakdown of blood clots in the womb.

      Anti-inflammatory medicines also help to ease period pain. They are taken for a few days at the time of the period. They work by reducing the high level of a chemical (prostaglandin) in the lining of the womb.

      The contraceptive pill may help you to have lighter periods and can often         help with period pain too.

Levonorgestrel intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) is similar to the coil that is used for contraception.

It is inserted into the womb and slowly releases a regular small amount of progestogen hormone called levonorgestrel. It works by making the lining of the womb very thin, so bleeding is lighter. However it can sometimes be difficult to insert into the womb in women with fibroids.

 

other forms of medical treatments include :

        Administering Medication to shrink the fibroids

       Ultrasound fibroid destruction treatment

        Myomectomy

        Hysterectomy

        Surgery and other operative treatments

Now, how can you manage this condition, through alternative handling?

  Healthy eating.   

The following foods should be focussed on: fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Foods that are high in nutrition and fibres and low in fat and calories should be encouraged. But there is need and cut down on sugar, meat, dairy products and alcohol.

Numerous vitamins and substances have been shown in some studies to normalise oestrogen level, they include

B vitamins

vitamin E

beta-carotene;

cysteine,

methionine,

choline, inositol (which helps the liver metabolize estrogen and other substances more efficiently);iron (if the fibroids cause heavy menstrual bleeding and anemia). Soya beans and soy milk

 Some herbs that can ease the symptoms of fibroids are, blue cohosh, dong quai, wild cherry, black cohosh, ginseng, red clover, goldenseal, red raspberry, licorice root, and motherwort.

Supplemental oleander extract, primarily used in addressing cancer and HIV/AIDS, is also often effective against fibroids and other types of tumors and irregular cells.

Liver cleansing and drinking plenty of water to expel toxins from the body may also be very helpful.

Warm castor oil packs placed on the stomach is another effective method of shrinking fibroids and relieving pain. Ginger compresses are also effective.
