I have lost two pregancies in the last 18 months. The last one happened 3 weeks ago at 12 weeks gestation. For the first 6 weeks my Dr. dd not beleive I was pregnant becuase he could not see the fetus during the ultrasound. Besides my HCG levels going up at 9 weeks we finally saw a fetus with a hearbeat. He casually told me I have a "distorted anatomy" fromthe fibroids. It was very hard t swallow as I had seen the heartbeat. I also suffer from hypertention and the dr had told me I had low progesterone level and was on Prometrin up until I lost the pregnancy. I have known I ad fibroids for a while as I have had 4 live births. My periods are a little heavy for 2 days out of 7. I have always had periods thatlat 7 days. I noticed more clots in the last year. My dr. has told me I am a good candidate fora hyserectomy. I do not want a hysterectomy as I do want one one child God willing. Even if I did not want any more children I still do not want a hysterctomy except if it threatens my life. He has also told me that If I elect to have a myomectomy I could end havin a complete hyterctomy as the fibroids are large. I have never had any knid of discomfort due to my fibroids. I rarely get cramps. I asked him about alternative medicines and he told me they do not work. I feel all alone in my plight. Do you think it is possible to shrink these fibroids naturally? Are all these capsules people are talking abou taking be dangerous especially if you are hypertensive, I also have anxiety really bad and since Ilst my pregnancy have sunk ito a greater depression. Please somebody help me. I spend all night on the compuer searching for natural medicine without surgery,
