Large uterine fibroid tumors?


Question:
Did anyone who had large fibroid tumors in uterus successfully go another route than surgery to deal with the problem of pain, etc. My gyne told me my uterus has doubled in size since Januaary, I have two large fibroids, and there is no other option than partial hysterectomy. I'm in lots of discomfort as my uterus is pushing against my bladder and stomach but I would like to avoid surgery if possible. Thanks.

Answers:
my mother had fibrioid tumors. she had to have a hysterectomy. they had to take out her uterus and one of her ovaries. she also didnt want to have the surgery but she is so glad she had it done because now she never has to deal with those tumors or her period ever again.
im not sure what else doctors could do about fibroid tumors.
good luck and hang in there !!
Dr. Christianne Northrup has a couple of books that talk in depth about treating fibroids without drugs or surgery. If you're a PBS viewer, you may have seen some of her lectures there.
