I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids back in May and really don't want to go through surgery. Are there any effective remedies or medicines that can help shrink or melt the fibroids naturally? What options do I have besides surgery?

Fibroids may shrink with GnRH analogs, herbal remedies, or diet changes—surgery is last resort if no improvement.

They'll advise on the safe dosage and duration. 2. _Monitor Iron Levels_: Regularly check your iron levels to avoid excessive intake. 3. _Folic Acid Dosage_: Ensure you're not exceeding the recommended folic acid dosage (400-800 mcgday). _Alternative Options_ If your doctor recommends alternative iron supplements, consider: 1. _Ferrous sulfate_: A commonly prescribed iron supplement. 2. _Ferrous fumarate_: Another iron supplement option.
