Have you been considering the pill for fibroids? The pill may be prescribed for uterine fibroids, but holistic health care offers other approaches that may address the underlying hormone imbalances that can lead to fibroids.

 

Uterine fibroids are benign tumors in the myometrium, or muscular layer of the uterus. While it is not entirely clear what causes fibroids, it is known that excessive levels of estrogen can cause fibroids to grow larger. When women take the pill for fibroids, it helps to halt or slow their growth. Holisitic health care may provide alternatives to the pill that help with underlying hormone balance that leads to fibroids. Dr. Christiane Northrup agrees that hormone balance can be improved through lifestyle changes.

 

The pill has many side effects, both long term and short term, but it does not address the underlying hormonal issues that may be causing the imbalance that leads to fibroid growth. Holistic health care may help you to look at the deeper issues and improve hormone levels through lifestyle changes and a specialized nutrition plan.
