If you are still watching this group, I would recommend myomectomy (surgical removal of your fibroids) if you want to have more children. This is the only technique which preserves fertility.

Hi there I decided to check in -- what fibroid treatment did you end up having? How do you feel about the results?

hello,i am doing fine,i just realised that i could choose to be positive or grumble which is a bad thing,so i am loving me the way i am,i decided to try the herbal remedies way which am taking ,i alsodo amassage daily with eucalyptus oil,i also tried taking diatomaceuos earth and so far i dont have the symptoms i had and i feel lighter,i went foran ultrasound and there was evidence of calcification of the fibroids.
thanks for asking.

That's good to hear, I am glad you are happy with your choice. What does calcification mean in reference to fibroids? I just had an artery embolization procedure done for my fibroids which are very large. I will have to wait a few months to see how much they shrink. The doctor who did it thinks they will be smaller by 50% which means I probably won't notice them. I hope this is true.

hello,i wish you well after the artery embolism procedure,i think it is good that we stay positive through it all,you will be in my thoughts and prayers.
well calcification means that there are calcium deposits in the fibroids making them shrink in size,it is some sort of degeneration .
