There are surprisingly quite a few natural treatments that may help alleviate the painful symptoms of fibroids. Additionally, some herbal specialists contend that the use of some these herbs, with their high content of various phytonutrients actually dissolve the fibroids.
Some professional herbalists suggest using herbs known to strengthen the liver. This helps to metabolize the estrogen from the body and in effect reduce the size of the fibroid. One of the best known herbs for this is milk thistle seed. It’s recently been coming into its own as a remedy for any generalized liver ailment. If you’ve got some fresh milk thistle handy, you can grind the entire herb and use it as a garnish for cereals, salads and other dishes. If you do this, you would need to take about two tablespoons a day.
