Doctors' responses
Dealing with uterine fibroids, like your 5.6 cm one, can sometimes be managed with specific dietary and lifestyle changes. Based on Ayurvedic principles, attention should be paid to balancing doshas, particularly Vata and Kapha, which are often linked to fibroid formation.
First, consider your diet. Focus on eating a Sattvic diet that includes fresh, whole, and easy-to-digest foods. Aim for foods that pacify Kapha and Vata, like cooked vegetables, warm grains (rice and quinoa), and legumes. Spices like cumin, coriander, and turmeric are helpful. Also, ginger is excellent for improving digestive fire (agni) and reducing Kapha. Avoid cold, processed, fatty, and sugar-laden foods, as they can exacerbate the imbalance.
Drink warm water and herbal teas. A decoction of Triphala, an Ayurvedic herbal blend, taken before bed can support detoxification and digestion. Adding a few drops of castor oil in warm milk at night could help with maintaining healthy bowel movements, which is crucial for detoxification.
In terms of lifestyle, integrating gentle exercises like your yoga practice is beneficial. Focus on poses that enhance pelvic circulation, such as Baddha Konasana and Supta Baddha Konasana. Incorporate Pranayama, like Anulom Vilom and Kapalbhati, to balance Vata and Kapha. Regular Abhyanga — self-massage with warm sesame or castor oil — is also recommended to relax and support oleation of bodily tissues, enhancing overall well-being.
Consistency matters when following these guidelines. Monitor any changes in symptoms and consult with a healthcare professional to ensure the fibroid is not causing any complications. If you notice increased discomfort or abnormal changes, prioritize seeking medical advice for a tailored strategy that may include additional interventions.
