Shigru Guggulu for Fibroids - #923
I am 37 years old and have been recently diagnosed with uterine fibroids. Over the past year, I have experienced irregular and heavy menstrual bleeding, which has left me feeling weak and tired. I also have mild pain in my lower abdomen, especially during my periods. An ultrasound confirmed the presence of multiple fibroids, with the largest measuring 3.5 cm. My doctor suggested surgery as an option, but I want to explore alternative methods before making that decision. I have been reading about Ayurvedic treatments for fibroids and came across Shigru Guggulu as a potential remedy. From what I understand, it helps in reducing inflammation and balancing hormones, which may help in shrinking fibroids naturally. I am very curious to know how effective this formulation is for my condition. In addition to Shigru Guggulu, are there any other herbs, therapies, or dietary changes you would recommend to address fibroids? I have heard that Ayurveda focuses on balancing the doshas—could fibroids be related to an imbalance of Kapha or Pitta in my body? I try to maintain a healthy lifestyle, but my diet often includes spicy and oily foods due to our family’s food habits. I have recently started including more fruits and vegetables in my meals. I also walk for about 30 minutes daily but have not practiced yoga or meditation consistently. Could you please advise on how to manage fibroids through Ayurveda? Are there specific Panchakarma therapies that can help detoxify and balance my body? How should I use Shigru Guggulu, and are there any precautions I should be aware of?
