Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

2007 my doctor discovered I had 3 large fibroids, the largest the size of a grapefruit. 4 years later I conceived, and during pregnancy 1 fibroid degenerated a bit, but all were still there. Interestingly enough, while nursing my child, my fibroids started to shrink but grew back when I stopped. Now while working towards finishing my degree, I had to do a research paper and decided to write it on "Uterine Fibroid Tumors can Shrink or Vanish without Surgery" Here is what I discovered: fibroids and other forms of cancerous and benign tumors in women grow primarily from an excess of the hormones estrogen and progesterone. During pregnancy, a woman's hormones shift from estrogen and progesterone to pregnancy hormones - to which the fibroids are no longer getting the nutrients and hormones it needs to continue to grow and therefore starts to degenerate, but not dissipate. However, there are TWO sure things that can shrink fibroids: breastfeeding and menopause. Why? Because both reduce the levels of estrogen and progesterone in the body. Fats, among other things, increase estrogen and progesterone. A diet high in fiber (lots of vegetables and grains) and low in fat (little red meat, etc.), along with exercise can slowly shrink fibroids. Furthermore, estrogen and progesterone are also causes for the growth of cancerous tumors (**do your research to further investigate**)... I decided to use myself as a guinea pig. My family from the Caribbean always said a combination of beet root and molasses could cure fibroids. My research confirmed this so I tried it for 9 months - my fibroids shrunk in size, but all were still evident (if i had continued the combo, they probably would have dissipated all together). The reason? Both molasses and beets are high in fiber. However, molasses would not be good for ones with diabetes because of the high sugar content. Further in my research, trying to find something that would help, but with less sugar, 1 doctor talked about DIM and its effect on estrogen and progesterone and how it could shrink fibroids and other tumors, and possibly decrease the chances of gaining cancer (**pls do not take final word on this but do your own research**). Upon completion of my research, I started taking DIM - 2 pills, once daily, since January 2013. As of today, I have ONE small fibroid left - that means the other 2 of the 3 fibroids have disappeared, dissolved, dissipated, whatever you want to call it - they are GONE!!! And, I no longer have PMS issues (like in the past). I am a FIRM believer that doctors are in fact wrong! Surgery/hysterectomy are NOT the only options to get rid of fibroids! I know for a FACT that there is a cure for fibroids and other tumors - and more than likely, there is a cure for cancer, too - they just haven't perfected it yet - especially since there are so many different kinds of cancers out there. All this has further confirmed for me that God has given us so much to help us in everything, whether it be the natural actions of our bodies (the fact that our bodies can slowly heal itself, etc), or the natural plants and herbs, etc., that are out there for our usage. Have a good day to all.
