Here is an excellent blog Shrinking Fibroids Naturally from a woman who is having two goals at her mid-forties:

– to get rid of several large fibroids and

– to finally conceive, since she is now happily married.

She follows a detailed plan, for almost a year and does have success. Here are the results in her own words

The two my gyn is most concerned about are the ones that are impinging into the cavity
Of those, one is the posterior which shrunk from 4.8 in May (5.0 in December) to 3.2 — so that’s 33% shrinkage since May, and 36% shrinkage since December. This is helpful since it makes more room in the cavity
The other one impinging into the cavity is the submucosal, which grew slightly from 2.5 to 2.7 (8%)

Then the other three are ones that are outside the uterus or inside the muscle:
A subserosal that was unchanged from May at 5.2 (was 5.7 in December)
A second subserosal that shrank from 3.1 in May to 2.8 (9.7% decrease)
A “mid” one that increased from 2.5 in May to 3.5 (40%)

(By the way, the reason I only have stats on two of them for December is because at that time my uterus was so distorted that my gyn didn’t bother trying to measure all of them. Only in May when things were looking better did she start to attempt to map and measure beyond the two biggest ones.)

How is it that the shrinkage/growth for each fibroid is so different? My gyn had two explanations. First, the ultrasounds are rather murky and it’s difficult to measure easily or accurately and sometimes when they are close it’s hard to distinguish them from each other to tell where one starts and one ends. Second, she said “each one can have a different DNA composition so they can respond to different things.” For example, some fibroids might be more or less hormone responsive than others, and some might respond to certain treatments while others don’t. Sounds like that’s what is going on here….

The results are very good, so good in fact that as of lately, she was okayed to TTC, which means the state of the uterus is now almost normal, and that a pregnancy is finally achievable (in theory, of course). To really get pregnant, of course, many other things need be syncronized, and she is trying hard, eating the right foods, reading about enzymes and so on, so let us all wish her luck in TTC!

NB For predictions on getting pregnant, you may want to have a look at the series of my astrological videos called Dusko Savic on Pregnancy In the Natal Chart

Here’s the question I’ve found in the mail this morning:

They want me to start taking lupron to decrease estrogen after estrogen and progesterone receptor + cancer. Tamoxifen did not work as I am premenopausal. Lupron scares me but i am not sure if it is worth the risks. How else can i decrease my estrogen naturally?

Great question and you will not find an answer strictly within the pharmaceutical world. You have to get to the root of the problem and that is how the pituitary gland works. Treat her right and everything else will slowly start to fall in place. This is a simplified view, of course, but nevertheless, the right one, and it is almost sure to be overlooked by a gynecologist, which will only think in terms of his or her specialistic profession.

You need a remedy that will affect the pituitary gland, and the actual way doesn’t matter:

– it can be herbal,

– it can be homeopathic, or a mixture of both,

– acupuncture or Su Jok,

– Reiki

and so on. If that works, fine.

The more fundamental way would be to see what emotions are whirling in your energy bodies now. Maybe the relationship you are in now needs adjustment, maybe there are monetary problems which ruin everything and your female body reacts the only way it knows how, by disseminating the energy from the emotional level deeper to the body, thus creating illness. A more proper therapy for this level would include Bach flower remedies, for example.

Finally, and this is the only way my services finally enter the picture, if you want to predict what will happen in the future AND start rectifying things and behaviours BEFORE they escalate, you may need a horoscope reading from me. To see a glimpse of how that would look like, you can go to www.DuskoSavic.com to see some videos of mine. If you order the reading, you will actually get such videos for YOUR case, with specific therapies for you both now and in the future and so on.

I am posting this to the blog because the question is very important and will be of use to many other visitors to the site. Thank you for posting it in the first place.

If you want to have children but are already diagnosed with fibroids, a natural question occurs: how to eliminate uterine fibroids before the pregnancy!? Pregnancy with fibroids will in some cases end up happily, but it is risky and prone to many problems, such as bleeding or calcified fibroids. Large uterine fibroids will make it downright impossible to get pregnant because the fertilized egg will not be able to implant itself into the lining of the uterus and thus officialy start the pregnancy.

If the fibroid is not large, the egg may implant itself successfuly and then it is a matter of chance whether the pregnancy will be full term or not, depending on the interplay of the growing foetus and the fibroid, one or more of them. Apart from the “mechanical” problems the deeper problem may be the hormonal one, because there is a reason the fibroid started to grow. Most often it is too much of estrogen that is being produced together with the excessive reactivity of estrogen receptors inside the uterus. If hormones are the problem, the pregnancy will end abruptly sooner or later, because if there is more estrogen as compared to progesterone, the lining of the uterus will grow and will fall off.

It may happen anywhere and anytime, while the woman is sleeping, or is doing ordinary house chores, or when going out to do the groceries… At least 3000 people have personally consulted with me in my capacity as a professional astrologer so far, but I still vividly remember a marital couple that came to me see whether they could they have more pregnancies and, finally, children. On Monday, they went to the gynecologist (she was in the end of the third month of the pregnancy), had everything checked out and everything was OK. Two days later, she woke up in a bed full of blood — the pregnancy was no more, without any sign of warning.

Treatment for Uterine Fibroids

The purpose of this post is to show alternative medicine methods to eliminate uterine fibroids before pregnancy, but there are other kinds of treatments for uterine fibroids. One that you will encounter often in Western medicine is fibroids treatment with Lupron (“Lupron from hell” as they call it), but is just a road to hysterectomy — guaranteed.

It is possible to eliminate fibroids through myomectomy, but that will have its own set of problems:

Myomectomy

Laparoscopic myomectomy

Abdominal myomectomy

Hysteroscopic myomectomy

What To Do If You Have Recently Lost Your Baby and There Were Fibroids in the Uterus

Here is what you should take now, at least four times a day in order to overcome the emotional problems left after you lost your baby

http://www.how-to-avoid-hysterectomy.com/rescue-remedy.html

There also is a more specific combination for this case and that is:

Star of Betlehem, Gorse, Walnut, Pine, Willow, Sweet Chestnut, Cherry Plum

You should take the above combination for at least two or three months in a row, for at least four times a day.

After that, while trying to conceive again, the following combination of Bach flower remedies would come handy:

Impatiens, Star of Betlehem, Gentian, Gorse, Vervain, White Chestnut

All these methods to eliminate uterine fibroids before pregnancy could be improved in personal contact with a dedicated practitioner, be it a professional herbalist, homeopath, or a Bach flower remedy practitioner. From me, through a medical astrology reading, you can gain glimpse of how the general energy trends will apply to your particular case. For example, as a rule of thumb, flower remedies are prescribed for three months in a row and the general wisdom says to stop. But if Uranus, the planet of speed and impatiency, makes hard aspects to your Sun or Moon for the entire next year, then you should be taking Impatience for that entire year instead of only three months.

If you are interested in why medical astrology works, you can read more about spiritual dimensions of medical astrology here. On that page you will also find when the medical astrology reading is not the best or the final answer to the client’s or patient’s needs and what to do then.

At the Imperfect Complainer blog, we find a story of Flicka, a woman who first got pregnant and then lost her baby after a few months. She now attends a doctor and was given the following advice:

– to stop doing the D&Cs, which were uncomfortable and painful,

– to go in for a chemo therapy, or

– to go all the way down and have a hysterectomy.

Here is my comment to this situation:

Doctors deal with patients, ie with people that have some discomfort, pain, illness etc. It is all too easy to screw up and make patient feel and behave much worse instead of much better. Doctors would like us to believe that they are omnipotent, as if when they wear their official white wardrobes they become powerful wizards, be all, end all, cure all. In reality, they are just humans willing to help and they might have some ready to use knowledge that patients find welcome.

So far so good, you go to a doctor, he or she tells you what to do, and that often helps. But what about those cases when doctors cannot help, or worse, when the things they suggest and do make everything worse on their own!? That is why doctors work within procedures: each problem you throw at them, they respond through a set of fairly rigids official procedures. It is this word official that is the problem here.

What is official and how do doctors learn about what is official? Official is what some body or committee of doctors says it is official. That is, they get together, two or three doctors that are at the foremost of the research tell others what should be done and how, and a new procedure is born. Each practicing doctor is then responsible not for healing a patient but <b>for applying the right procedure in the proper way</b>. There is a huge difference between healing or curing and applying a proper procedure and that what this comment is all about.

In the above post, the doctor suggested three separate things, none of which is aimed at curing or healing or advancing the health of the patient. He or she is bound by the available procedures for the patient’s situation, but if none of the procedures is going to work, then what — he doesn’t really care! He has done everything he could according to the trade he is in, but how will that help the patient to have a child, in this case? The doctor is legally covered and he can even be sympathetic to the patient, wishing her every good in the world, but he still is bound by his chosen profession.

The senseless D&Cs really should have been stopped, or at least a hysteroscopy should have been performed, in which the doctor can actually see something inside the uterus. There are videos on YouTube ( Hysteroscopy Of Intramural Fibroids Video and Operative Hysteroscopy For Intrauterine Adhesions Video) so everybody can see what it looks like.

The chemo therapy as it is called here is not a chemo therapy in the sense of someone having cancer and then applying a chemo therapy, here it is a hormonal therapy aimed at resolving the symptoms. Finally, the most horrible idea is to have a hysterectomy because there will never be babies after that. But all this is leading to a hysterectomy, the situation that this doctor is leading his patient to has even been statistically researched, and the conclusion was that hysterectomy was inevitable when “everything” was tried, including the hormonal treatment.

We are all too ready to believe everything the good doctor says, but in this case and in all cases such as this, there is a lot to try and do inbetween the symptoms and final solution, i.e. hysterectomy. There is homeopathy, there is Reiki, Su Jok, acupuncture, enzyme mixtures, herbal remedies, crystal therapy… as well as many others, none of which is in the domain of our good doctor because the official medicine didn’t approve any of them.

I wish your friend all the best, and especially not only to get well but to have that baby finally. Life with a baby of your own is what life on this planet is all about.

Sincerely, Dusko Savic

Can you have cancer of ovaries if you do not have ovaries? Perhaps, your ovaries were taken out during a hysterectomy and you think you are safe? Then read this post:

Signs of Ovarian Cancer (Even in the Absence of Ovaries)

The authour advocates that you should perform a yearly CA-125 ovarian cancer test, which should be even paid by your insurance (if you live in the USA, that is).

Maybe you should. Or you can ask a medical astrologer to see whether the period for cancer is really due.

The following question was posted on Yahoo Answers, on 6th of December 2007:

My mother had uterine fibroid tumors, and I think I may have them, too. I am bleeding extremely heavily, enough to soak a tampon within half an hour. I have made a doctor’s appointment, but they cannot see for a month.

Are there natural ways to reduce this bleeding? HELP!

Here is my answer, which, by the way, was in no way the only one.

So, you were shocked to learn that you need a hysterectomy. Thanks God, there’s the Internet, and there you are, the very same evening, Googling “hysterectomy” and everything else you may think of in that regards. One of the best ways to learn something valuable is to pose a question in a forum, preferably in a place in which you post regularly. Here is a link to one such discussion, in 3FatChicks.com forum. Read it and see how the sides polarize, some women had “the surgery” and felt great about it, while others had quite bad experiences and still suffer the consequences.

My contribution to that thread was this:

Hi

Having a hysterectomy is never a picnic. The only way of telling what will happen next is medical astrology, but there are very few people in the world that practice it. For every woman that had her hysterectomy done well, there is a legion of women who curse themselves for being so stupid to give their consent for it, without realizing what they actually do.

Uterus is a vital part of woman’s body, it stores sex hormones created by the ovaries during the night and releases them during the day. If there is no uterus, the hormones get expelled with the first morning urination and from there so many problems follow that it would require an entire site to explain the consequences.

Fibroids are tumors, and tumors are large tissues — ask yourself, what in my life is food for these tumors to grow!? Uterus is an organ for emotional responses, it is your primary means of reacting to the world as a woman. In other words, it is the emotions that give food to the tumors and cancers, resolve emotions first, they are the origin of the illness, and simultaneously try to heal the body.

If you want to heal your fibroids and uterus, you may be interested to know that there are several alternative methods of healing the uterus without surgery: homeopathy, Su Jok, Reiki, herbal remedies, seed therapy, a combination of these etc. Maybe the simplest would be to try the enzymes which resolve the myoma, Google them and you’ll find them.

All the best, Dusko Savic

Here is the all important question:

Question: I have had problems with an irregular cycle. I also have fibroids. My doctor has recommended a hysterectomy, but I am uncomfortable with such radical surgery. Do I have other options? I am 45 and otherwise in good health.

which is answered by Dr. Richard T. Bosshardt for Orlando Sentinel, under the title of
Weigh your options before you undergo hysterectomy. Here is my comment to the article:

==========================

Hi

A nice article written from the doctor’s point of view. I’d also like to remind that there are other methods from alternative medicine that can help with fibroids and irregular bleeding.

With the advent of the Internet, women to which hysterectomy was suggested can ask other women through specialized forums and groups, and there are dozens of sites devoted to hysterectomy and its consequences. Here are suggestions for some of these:

www.youtube.com, search for hysterectomy, laparoscopy, myoma, myomectomy etc.
www.nohysterectomy.com, written by a leading gynecologist in the USA
www.how-to-avoid-hysterectomy.com — minimally invasive procedures such as endometrial ablation instead of hysterectomy, then homeopathy, Bach flower remedies, herbal remedies, Su Jok, Reiki, enzymes… are the methods of energy healing that can all help with the fibroids. The site also contains a collection of annotated videos from youTybe and Google Video.
www.hystersisters.com — a site for hysterectomy recovery, very large, contains a ton of info, but geared to those that have already had their hysterectomy, preferably a “happy” one.

There are other links of course, but these can be a useful start. You have the right to know what will happen to your body after such a major surgery so do your homework well.

All the best, Dusko

Not a day passes that someone will not write about or mention hysterectomy, either in the news or in their blog or wherever.

Low Libido in Women — What To Do About It?

So many women have low libido, a low drive to have sex with their partners. Almost half of the women actually fall into this category and some of the actually want to do something about it. This story, Pills Not Always the Cure for Women Suffering Low Libido, tells us about a case in which testosterone pills actually helped a woman regain her libido, and at the same time, it also states that the low male hormones are far from the only cure.

A typical situation in which sex drive is diminished is after the hysterectomy, you can read an article testosterone for women on this site about it.

Although, as as astrologer, I must add that the quality of your sex drive depends both on your Mars and Venus in the natal chart, as well as on the interplay of these two planets with your partner’s Mars and Venus. (Hint, hint: find a partner with any kind of crossed aspect with your Mars and Venus and you won’t even need artificial hormones!)

Treatments For Menorrhagia Evaluated, UK

Heavy menstrual bleeding (menorrhagia) is a common problem in women. About 5% of women asks their GP about that such bleeding. In previous decades, hysterectomy was the only way to resolve it, but in the meantime, new surgical techniques evolved. Professor Siladitya Bhattacharya of the University of Aberdeen will lead a team of researchers to review the existing evidence about hysterectomy, endometrial ablative techniques (microwave endometrial ablation and thermal balloon ablation), and the Mirena coil. The goal of the study is to establish long term effectiveness of all these methods, and then to create a set of guidelines for doctors to follow in clinical decision making. The estimated publishing time is mid 2010.

Here are the technical details of the proposed study.

New Hysterectomy Offers Faster Recovery

A sugar-coated story of how a woman had increasingly heavy periods and anemia, how her doctor persuaded her to take the uterus out and how she walked home the next day after the laparoscopic, or minimally-invasive, hysterectomy.

This story reads like an open advertisement for hysterectomy. Laparascopy is better than laparotomy, and yes, you do walk away from the hospital much faster as compared to the usual gynecological surgery. What the story does not tell is that from now on that woman will live without her main sex organ, and that can hurt in more ways that one.

Incidentally, in this hysterectomy news here is an animated video of laparoscopic hysterectomy. If you are interested in video presentations concerning hysterectomy, you can use a rich collection of annotated hysterectomy videos from the very site that you are reading now, How To Avoid Hysterectomy.com.

You can learn more about laparoscopy in hysterectomy, here.

Peggy Anderson Blog: September is
National Gynecological Awareness Month

I’ll just quote Peggy Anderson:

I know that I didn’t consider myself at risk. I was at 23 years of age, had cervical cancer, and had a hystertomy. At 33 years of age I had vaginal cancer due to bad cells left over from my surgery from that caused some major problems for me. Hemorrhaging problems that brought me to emergency wards, even though I had a hysterectomy. I had a procedure called cryosurgery or freezing of the cells. (Since I will turn 60 this next year, I don’t get embarrassed about “the little things in life.” Health is important in our society!)

I always say, “Every day is a gift.” This is especially so for many cancer patients, who cherish the rising of the sun, and the smell of a flower, a new taste, a new day, and a new event. We see the beauty in every day and every tomorrow.

Read her blog post about the conditions that can lead to various forms of gynecological cancers.

I’d like to do her natal chart and see why she had all these medical problems and also what enabled her to survive them all for decades.

Sex After Hysterectomy

Here is an ongoing discussion on the effects hysterectomy has on sex. I added a comment and here is what I have said (I’ll record it here, in case they don’t allow my comment on their blog):

================================

Hi to all here

Although my site is active for more than two years by now, I have only today stumbled upon this blog. The comments here show how painful everything about hysterectomy seems to be and what I find most disturbing is this sheep mentality that so many women succumb to. Oh, the doctor said it would be OK, so it must be OK, right? The thought that some real healing should be tried before the surgery is so alien to the Western World that the results really are sickening.

Every illness has its cause. Removing the cause will lead to true healing, but what do women do instead!? They go to a doctor and hope that they will be able to purchase a solution. Hysterectomy is so widespread in the USA because there is an implicit belief that doctors hold the keys to everything and vise versa, if they don’t know what to do, than all the means are exhausted. This enervates me because I know that there are at least 5, 6 or 7 ways to heal uterine fibroids, heavy menstrual bleeding, cancer and so on. In 20% of cases, hysterectomy will be the only way to proceed, but what about those 80% that can really avoid hysterectomy if only they knew it were possible.

Somebody in these comments said it was not possible to predict the outcome of a hysterectomy. Well, it is possible to predict it through the methods of medical astrology. On my site I list many such cases, and I openly give the recipes that helped several women stop their menstrual bleeding, avoid hystrectomy etc. And here we are not talking about $5000 cost of surgery, we are talking about cheap natural remedies such as herbal remedies, homeopathic remedies, enzymes and the like, that can all be gathered for a few bucks from Amazon.

The point is this: if you want to get healed, you will be — but somebody first has to tell you that you can be healed. Surgery is cutting out, not healing. The Moon rules both the uterus and the breasts, and when they take away the uterus, the energy goes to the breasts… which is why so many women on HRT after hysterectomy develop cancer of the breasts.

For the ladies here that experienced sex drive through the roof after hysterectomy, that kind of behavior is astrologically described as an aspect of Mars and Uranus. It may well be possible that such an aspect was made during the surgery, and that it may affect you harder that it normally would. Strong sexual drives may also come as a result of too much testosterone, so everybody with this type of behavior should control their hormonal mix from time to time.

================================

You can read about hysterectomy side effects from this very site. Also, here is what I wrote about sex after hysterectomy.

That’s it for this week, then!
