HELLO ANKITA,

WHAT ARE FIBROIDS? -Fibroids are non-cancerous growths in the uterus -They form due to imbalance of hormones (estrogen and progesterone) and disturbed metabolism -In Ayurveda, they are considered as granthi (knots or lumps) formed due to kapha (growth, heaviness), vata (movement, irregularity) and pitta (bleeding , inflammation) imbalance

THEY MAY CAUSE -heavy or prolonged periods -pain during menses -pressure in abdomen, bloating -anemia due to blood loss -sometimes no symptoms at all

TREATMENT GOALS -shrink or stabilize fibroid size (slow growth ,prevent recurrence) -reduce symptoms- heavy bleeding, pain, anemia ,pressure -correct hormonal imbalance -purify blood and metabolism -strengthen uterus -improve overall vitality and prevent surgery if possible

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) KANCHANAR GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals =breaks down fibroid mass, reduces kapha growths

2) ASHOKARISHTA= 20 ml with equal water after meals twice daily =balances menstrual cycle, controls heavy bleeding, strengthen uterus

3) PUNARNAVADI MANDUR= 2 tabs twice daily after meals =reduces swelling, improves blood quality, prevents anemia

4) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp at bedtime with warm water =detoxifies, improves digestion, regulates metabolism

5) ALOE VERA JUICE= 20 ml on empty stomach in morning =supports liver function, regulates hormones

6) TURMERIC + BLACK PEPPER POWDER= 1/2 tsp daily in warm milk =anti inflammatory, anti tumor effect

DURATION= usually 3-6 months

DIET -old rice, barley, wheat, horse gram -bitter vegetables= bitter gourd, neem leaves, fenugreek -pomegranate, apple, papaya, figs, raisins -spices= turmeric, ginger, garlic, cinnamon, cumin -cow’s ghee in small amount -warm water and herbal teas- ginger, tulsi, coriander seed

AVOID -excess dairy (especially cheese, panner) , red meat -packaged food, white flour, sugar -fermented food, bakery, cold drinks, ice cream -heavy , oily, deep fried items -late night eating

YOGA ASANAS -supta baddha konasana -setu bandhasana -bhujangasana -balasana -pawanmuktasana -viparita karani

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom= balances hormones -Bhramari= calms stress -Kapalbhati= improves metabolism

HOME REMEDIES -warm castor oil pack on lower abdomen, 20 min 2-3 times a week -coriander seed water= soak overnight, drink in morning- reduces heavy bleeding -cumin + fennel tea= improves digestion, reduces bloating -aloe vera + turmeric paste (external application on lower abdomen)- reduces inflammation

Repeat ultrasound after 3 months

-Fibrods are common at your age. many women live with them without surgery -Ayurveda offers a holistic approach : correcting digestion, balancing hormones, detoxifying body, shrinking growths, and strengthening uterus -commitment to regular medicines, diet, yoga, and follow up is important -If fibroids are very large or symtpoms are severe (continuous heavy bleeding, severe anemia, compression on bladder/bowel), surgery may become necessary for saety

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELFPUL

THANK YOU

Home Remedies for Fibroids

1. Dietary Adjustments

Increase:

Green leafy vegetables (spinach, drumstick leaves, methi)

Fruits like papaya, pomegranate, apple, guava

Whole grains (millets, brown rice, oats)

Flaxseeds & sesame seeds (balance hormones)

Avoid:

Red meat, fried foods, excess dairy

Refined flour, white sugar

Very spicy and oily foods


2. Herbal Support (can take as home remedy)

Aloe vera + Honey: 1 tsp aloe gel + 1 tsp honey daily empty stomach.

Turmeric milk: ½ tsp turmeric in warm milk at night (anti-inflammatory).

Flaxseed water: Soak 1 tsp flaxseeds overnight, drink water next morning.

(In Ayurveda, formulations like Kanchanara guggulu, Ashokarishta, Varunadi kwath are often prescribed — but these need vaidya’s supervision.)


3. Lifestyle & Yoga

Maintain healthy weight (obesity worsens fibroids).

Gentle yoga: Bhujangasana, Setubandhasana, Supta Baddha Konasana (avoid very strong abdominal pressure).

Daily walk (20–30 min).

Stress reduction → pranayama (anulom vilom, bhramari).

Uterine fibroids, or leiomyomas, are common non-cancerous tumors in the uterus, which can cause discomfort, heavy bleeding, and pressure in the pelvic area. In Ayurveda, they are often seen as a result of dosha imbalances, mainly Sharira Kapha and Rakta (blood) disorders, due to improper lifestyle, diet, and stress factors.

To address this through Ayurveda without surgery, you could start with some herbal treatments. Herbs like Guggulu, Ashoka, and Shatavari can be beneficial. They help in balancing the vitiated Kapha and Rakta, which often contribute to fibroid growth. Take Kanchnar Guggulu, an Ayurvedic classical formulation, which is known for managing fibroid growth. You can usually take one tablet, twice daily after meals with lukewarm water. Consistency is key, so try sticking to a regular schedule with the herbal supplements.

Dietary changes is also important. It’s advisable to avoid foods that increase Kapha such as dairy products, excessively sweet or salty foods, and processed foods. Favor a diet that includes lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains like quinoa and barley, and spices that promote digestion like ginger and pepper.

Stress management and regular exercise play a crucial role. Yoga and Pranayama can be very effective in maintaining a balance in your body’s energies. Specific Asanas like Bhujangasana (Cobra Pose) and Pawanmuktasana (Wind-Relieving Pose) support uterine health. Practice these daily a few minutes if your doctor agrees that these activities won’t interfere with your c section recovery.

Finally, it’s critical to maintain regular follow-ups with your gynecologist to monitor the fibroids. While lifestyle and herbal interventions can aid in managing symptoms and potentially reducing fibroid size, if symptoms worsen or become unmanageable, medical treatment should be considered.

Fibroids are non-cancerous growths in the uterus, and their treatment often depends on symptoms, size, and location. From a Siddha-Ayurvedic perspective, uterine fibroids are considered a Kapha-Vata imbalance affecting the rasa and rakta dhatus (tissue systems). Though the doctor’s suggestion for a hysterectomy is common, there are alternatives you might consider if you’re not keen on surgery.

First, dietary adjustments may help. You should incorporate anti-inflammatory foods, may be favoring a Kapha-purging diet, which means avoiding heavy, oily, and excessively sweet foods. Opt for light and warm foods, like daal and soups with ginger, turmeric, and garlic, which can harmonize the aggravated doshas.

Herbs like Ashoka (Saraca indica) and Guggulu are traditionally used in Siddha medicine to support uterine health. They may help in managing the symptoms, though they should be taken under guidance – typically in tablet form. Chandraprabha vati could another option to consider for balancing hormones and promoting healthy tissues.

Pranayama and yoga might also play a role in managing fibroids. Practices like Surya Namaskar can increase circulation and help balance body energies, if practiced daily for about 20 minutes.

It’s essential to monitor your symptoms closely. If, for instance, your fibroids are causing severe pain or heavy bleeding, it’s crucial to consult with a healthcare provider to ensure timely medical intervention where needed. Always consider integrating these remedies with your doctor’s plan and make sure to have regular check-ups to monitor the fibroids’ development and overall health status.
