Uterine Fibroids, also called uterine leiomyomas are extremely common in women these days.

Fibroids are non- cancerous tumors found within the uterine walls, often resulting in a change in the size or shape of the uterus as well as several unpleasant symptoms. Women deal with pain, menstrual changes and other complications. 

If not properly taken care of, fibroids may cause complications in the future. Here are ways of treating fibroids:

Avoid foods that make fibroids worse-they include high-fat processed meats, conventional dairy, refined sugars, refined carbohydrates, alcohol and too much caffeine are high contributors of fibroids which should be avoided.Eat foods that heal fibroids- once in a while foods such as green leafy veggies that contain vitamin-K, cruciferous vegetables and flax seeds should be added to one's meal.Try supplements that aid in fibroid reduction- before taking any medication, ensure to check with your doctor. Discuss if you have any allergies from the content of the medicine. They are vitex, fish oil, B-complex and milk thistle.Turn to essential oils- thyme, Clary sage and frankincense are the best essential oils for natural fibroids treatment. They all have the ability to help balance hormones naturally.Sip on herbal teas- herbal tea helps soothe symptoms of fibroids by decreasing inflammation and rebalancing certain hormones. Teas made of chasteberry, milk thistle, yellow dock, dandelion roots and red raspberry all have systemic benefit for the uterus and reproductive system.Try castor oil packs- by applying castor oil on one's abdomen, it increases circulation systems and also increases white blood cells that eliminate disease-causing toxins from the body.
