My Grapefruits

In 2007, I was diagnosed with my first fibroid!   It was the size of a small orange.  Three years later, I have two fibroids that are the size of a grapefruit (about 9 cm).  To give you an idea of how large my fibroids are, think about a fetus that’s about 3.5 months old.  Ugh yea.  Luckily, my fibroids are outside of my uterus and don’t cause me much pain.  The first fibroid sits at the root of my uterus, while the second is at the top of my uterus. 

Quiz time! 

What is my uterus? 

Answer:  a sexual reproductive organ, which is associated with the root chakra! 

Apparently, I had (or may still have) some issues with safety and security in the world.  After I was diagnosed with my second fibroid, my western medicine doctor gave me three treatment options:

1. Hysterectomy
2. Laparoscopy
3. Myomectomy

I couldn’t believe those were my options!  I decided to take matters into my own hands and do what I know best.  TREAT my fibroids “naturally.”    To start, I decided to try an Ayurveda herbal tonic, Ashokarishta, a long with a modified diet, acupressure, crystal clearing, and electro-acupuncture treatments.  I’ll continue this treatment plan for the next three months and report back to you with my results.   If you’ve tried Ashokarishta, or any of the other  methods I mentioned above please let me know your results.

Blessings,

Yashieka
