I’ve really admired Christiane Northrup’s approach to holistic care and specifically to woman’s health for years now, and I guess I should not have been surprised that she pointed to Focused Ultrasound as a treatment option for maintaining a whole body for women with fibroids.

In her Web-posting she says that “The good news is most fibroids don’t cause symptoms, don’t require any fancy treatment, and almost never require a hysterectomy, despite what you may have heard.”

She also mentions treating fibroids through hormonal regulation using both pharmaceutical options (low dose hormones by use of contraceptive pills) or through plant based estrogen levels from phyto-estrogens in soy or flaxseeds that block the natural estrogen sources access to receptors in the body, thereby reducing the effects on fibroid growth.
