I have a huge fibroid and was turned on to magnesium therapy as a possible solution. While consistently applying transdermal magnesium I was astounded to find that my fibroid shrunk dramatically to the point that it was difficult to find the hard mass when lying down. However though I assumed it was the result of magnesium I was also taking Iodine , silicon and calcium Bentonite each day. I have continued with the magnesium though stopped administering the iodine, silicon and Bentonite clay. Unfortunately the fibroid has returned very quickly. So I'm intrigued to hear that Iodine may have been the solution and that magnesium helps with its bio availability. I am going to begin taking the Iodine with the magnesium and see what happens. Will keep you posted as to the results
