FOODS TO SUPPORT UTERINE FIBROID SYMPTOMS // Let’s talk about foods that can support the symptoms of uterine fibroids. Scroll back to learn more about fibroids, how common they are and some of the symptoms.

Finding balance between estrogen and progesterone is an essential part of managing the symptoms of fibroids. Foods that support the liver, gut and ovulation are great ways to redress the balance between estrogen and progesterone. Additionally, heavy periods are another symptom of fibroids and these foods can be a great way to support. If you don’t eat liver (it’s a great food PACKED with nutrients, but I know it’s not for everyone!), try natto, a Japanese dish of fermented soy beans.

As I like to say, these foods will never be a cure-all, HOWEVER, they can be a very important part of your fibroid management toolkit!

How many of these foods do you eat regularly?

I’ve supported many women with fibroids and would love to support you. If you have fibroids and want to have a conversation about ways I can help, I’m opening some availability to work with me starting in August.

FIBROID AWARENESS MONTH // According to the NHS, uterine fibroids are the most common gynaecological condition affecting the female reproductive system in the UK. Between 2 and 4 in every 10 women have, or will develop fibroids at some point in their lives. It’s important to note that many have fibroids and have no symptoms.

Uterine fibroids are benign growths on, within or inside the uterus. The first slides has a visual of where they can be located on the uterus.

The research shows that fibroids are more common and more severe amongst Black women and that African ancestry is considered a key risk factor for fibroids.

There have been many conversations highlighting racial health disparities amongst other conditions and the same is true for fibroids.

What we eat, what we put on our skin and hair, what we clean our homes and how often we have a bowel movement all have an impact on the balance between estrogen and progesterone and consequently, fibroid growth.

Have you heard of fibroids, know someone who has them or have them yourself? I would love to start more conversations about fibroids and increase awareness of this very common gynaecological condition.

I’ve supported many women with fibroids and would love to support you.
