Newly discovered

I just found out I have a very large fibroid. I'm in the beginning of researching everything. Some websites make me feel better than others.

I have a question about diet. Have any of your tried the detox plans or herbs that are discussed as being able to "shrink" the fibroid?

I haven't been to the doctors in ages so I knew I'd have something wrong. I guess I should be grateful it's just this (and only this hopefully).

I should mention I don't have many symptoms, just a full feeling in my stomach and maybe a slight increase in bleeding. But I'm also 75 pounds overweight so the full feeling might just be fat. :(

Hi! I actually just asked my doctor that question today! He said in all the research he has done on fibroids there has been no conclusive results saying that a certain diet or exercise can help shrink the fibroid.

My doctor told me the same thing and said some of the medications they say shrink the fibriods once you stop taking it the fibriods sometimes come back bigger. I don't know where your fibriods are in the uterus but do some research and talk to doctors who have experience dealing with fibriods.
