Healing Fibroids and Ovarian Cysts

Q: Hi, I have had problems with fibroid cysts for many years.  I am 41 the other day I was taken to emergency with acute stomach pain, diaherra, and vomiting.  The doctor told me I had a cyst burst on my ovary and twisted my faploian tube.  Is their anything I can do about these.  Doctor suggest surgery but I am against that.  Any suggestions would be very appreciated.  Thank you.

 

A: Hello Angie, I understand your concern with surgery.  I truthfully do not know what the best answer is for you.  What type of surgery are they suggesting?  If it were me and it were a matter of immediacy, I might opt for the surgery.  Otherwise though I would try whatever simple more natural ways I could to care for the concern.  For fibroids, uterine fibroids, I feel wonderful about Vitex berry tincture or sometimes even Liferoot tincture.  For ovarian cysts I have heard many benefit from Chickweed tincture.  I am unfamiliar with a bursting cyst twisting a fallopian tube, so do not know what care this then needs.  I imagine this was very painful.

Blessings,

Q: Dear Karen, sorry it took so long to get back to you.  Thank you so much for the information. No more talk of surgery I went to my regular doctor.  So I have three turmors (non cancer) on my right side uterus/ovary.  As long as my pain stays within range we are just going to keep an eye on it.  You suggested Vitex Berry, Liferoot, and Chickweed.  I am hoping this could shrink my
turmors.  If you have anymore information I would appreciate it.

A: Hello Angie, it sounds you are feeling more relaxed, especially now with a doctor not recommending the immediacy of surgery.

I know we also spoke a while back after you went to a well woman exam and was told you should have a hysterectomy due to a fibroid tumor on your uterus.  I sent you an article on fibroids. Did you read it, and did anything in particular stand out for you? 

If you feel you have a few months to see the start of results I would opt to follow her suggestions for intention and focus exploring behind the tumors, the dietary suggestions for you, and the Vitex berry tincture.  I do not opt for too many things at one time. 

If ovarian cysts, many have had results from warm castor oil packs placed over the area, as well as tincture of Chickweed whole herb taken in water, a dropperful 2-4 times a day faithfully.  Do write any time please!

love and blessings,
Karen Joy

Hi Karen,

I know what you're going through since my mother had the same problems. She's gotten over it without surgery and I hope you can do the same. It's great that there's no cancer!!!

I was just curious how you are doing now since it has been quite a long time since your last post? Did any of the suggestions worked? Which ones and how?

Hope to hear from you again soon.

It is not I who had the concern. I am the one who answered the question. So sorry I can not answer for her.

thanks for your concern,
Karen Joy

Hi Karen,

I suffer with functional ovarian cysts and have recently read lot on chickweed tincture and its benefits for ovarian cyst. I've learned a decrease in progesterone and its contribution to ovarian cyst. I wanted to know if I can use the two in combination as I recently started with the recommended dosage of the progesterone cream from Dr. John Lee. I am dying to get rid of the cysts and return to normalcy...no pain. Also, how long should the tincture be used? If the cysts are resolved should I continue as well?

MIa, hello, I am not familiar with the actions of this progesterone cream so can not comment on the use of it with Chickweed together, but do not see harm. As a plant Chickweed is a lovely food I eat daily whenever I can! Its use is to dissolve cysts so I see no need to take the tincture beyond when this is complete, but do not see harm in doing so. Though then I would favor simply finding a cool shady garden patch or pot and spread some seeds for a little green snack each day :) You might consider castor oil poultices as well.

Thank you Karen,
I found an organic herbalist in College Park MD and was able to purchase the tincture as well as fresh chickweed...I too will try the castor oil poultices on a daily basis up until the day of my cycle. I will keep you informed of my progress.

Thank you,
Mia
