I have three large fibroids. I have been "threatened" with an "emergency" hysterectomy. I believe that my physicians and nurse practitioner are just used to the old way of dealing with women and would prefer mutilation and castration of women rather than providing holistic, patient, and gentle treatment. I still want to have a child and I do not want a hysterectomy. I tried nettle and dandelion tea and my symptoms of severe bleeding were reduced significantly. I could not believe the difference. I also used castor oil on my abdomen, and I slept like a baby.
I have purchased milk thistle and red clover but have not used either. Ihave read that these two herbs may not be good for my fibroids and may have a contraindication with my own natural estrogen levels. What should I do? Should I not take them?
