Can Ayurvedic treatments help manage large fibroids?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have four large fibroids: two intramural ones measuring 4.7 inches and 3.9 inches each, and two subserosal ones measuring 1.6 inches and 3.9 inches each. I do not have any symptoms except for frequent urination, and my periods are regular. Is there any medication to shrink the fibroids?

Please suggest.

Answered by Dr. Alka

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

According to your condition, in addition to Ayurvedic medicines, you also require panchakarma procedures such as vamana or virechana. Vamana is emesis therapy, and virechana is purgation therapy. These procedures should be performed under the supervision of a physician. They will help in removing excess toxins from your body and may also aid in managing fibroids.

I advise you to visit a nearby reputable Ayurveda physician and consult them about this.

I hope this helps you.

Thank you.
