Diet modifications Eat a fiber-rich diet (whole grains, fruits, and vegetables) to prevent estrogen dominance. Avoid dairy, processed foods, and excessive soy products. Drink warm water infused with lemon or ginger to boost metabolism. Practice yoga asanas like Bhujangasana, Malasana, and Supta Baddha Konasana for pelvic circulation. Manage stress with meditation and pranayama.

Hi Prathiba,
I appreciate your health concern. It’s good to get regular scans. Since the fibroid is small now, leaving it untreated may cause it to grow larger. It would be helpful if you could share details about your menstrual cycle, physical activity, food habits, sleep pattern, and any other health issues for a customized diet plan and medication.
Here are some dietary and lifestyle modifications
Increase fiber intake – Whole grains, lentils, fruits, and vegetables.
Choose natural anti-inflammatory foods – Berries, turmeric, ginger, muxed seeds , methi and nuts
Limit red meat and processed foods
Avoid refined sugar and excess carbs
Drink herbal teas – Like green tea, Ginger tea , triphala tea, Moringa leaves tea , Guava leave tea etc
Stay hydrated – Aim for 2–3 liters of water daily.
Include healthy fats – Avocados, olive oil, nuts, and seeds.
Regular physical activity – Brisk walking, yoga, Zumba for 30 to 35 minutes

When it comes to fibroids, Ayurveda offers insightful perspectives that can help in managing and potentially reducing the size. Even though your fibroids are small and asymptomatic, it’s wise to address them now to prevent potential issues in the future.
First, focus on your diet, as it’s crucial in maintaining hormonal balance. In Ayurveda, fibroids are often viewed as a Kapha-related condition, so you’d want to reduce Kapha-aggravating foods. Opt for a diet rich in fresh vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Try to avoid or limit dairy, red meat, and refined sugar, as they can contribute to Kapha imbalance. A habit of sipping warm water or herbal teas throughout the day supports digestion, which is essential for reducing Kapha.
Herbs play a significant role in Ayurveda for balancing the body. Ashoka (Saraca indica) and Lodhra (Symplocos racemosa) are commonly recommended for supporting female reproductive health and reducing Kapha. You might consider these under the guidance of an Ayurvedic practitioner. Also, Turmeric is great for its anti-inflammatory properties - incorporating it into your diet can be beneficial.
Routine exercise suited to your lifestyle is another step - regular physical activity, like walking or yoga, can help keep Kapha in check. Yoga postures such as Ardha Matsyendrasana (Half Spinal Twist) and Bhujangasana (Cobra Pose) are particularly supportive for reproductive health, enhancing circulation and metabolism.
Stress management is also pivotal. Practice relaxation techniques, such as meditation or pranayama (breathing exercises), to maintain hormonal balance and support overall health.
Remember that each person is unique. It’s best to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner who can tailor advice specifically to your prakriti (constitution) and ensure that the herbs and lifestyle suggestions align with your nature. If you ever notice symptoms or if your condition changes, always seek medical advice promptly.
