These women have to face this. If that was personally me, I wouldn’t know what to do. What smart, beautiful, and powerful women.
Kick Vick beings*
They are different people
They didnt know either. The truth is, once you get health problems that are chronic, nothing in life prepares you for it and you just have to find ways to live with it. You learn what does and doesn't help control your pain. You go through many treatments that do nothing and feel discouraged every time something doesn't work. It's extremely tough and it drags many people into mental health problems but you only have one body and if you want to keep living, you keep trying treatments. You keep navigating bad days knowing not every day will be that bad. You find things that work such as therapy, the right med combo and learn to find joy in the little things. Chronic health problems are incredibly trying but every single human on this planet is able to find a way through it. I get the sentiment but it's just pure survival when it comes down to it.
I have chronic illness myself so if it sounds like I'm coming from experience, I am. You never know how strong you really are until being strong is your only option to continue living.
misatchi I am so sorry ❤️
misatchi couldn't have said it better myself! Spoonies unite! (Nickname for chronic illness folks based on the spoon theory)
The lady in the head wrap/turban NEEEEDS to model!! She is beyond beautiful! Her skin is glowing and she has such a striking look!
Lewis Massey I was thinking the exact same thing.
Agreed! And that lip color is so flattering on her.
Btw y’all her name is Brianna
The results of following this fibroids treatment method t.co/49mDk0XaSq
came very quickly. I have been successful within just 30 days to treat all the symptoms associated with my fibroids (including the pain, bleeding and bladder pressure) and within 6 weeks, my huge 8.2cm & 8.5cm fibroids had shrunk into almost nothing.?
Agreed!
"anywhere from 20-80%"
Spiffleh a lot of women's diseases (relating to the uterus) are so underresearched it's really sad
AnIndianGirl men’s aren’t either
Emma Marie ok that doesn’t mean male diseases should be studied less
katynope they aren't
katynope so far, uterus diseases are either put under the umbrella term pcos or fibroids, and when explaining symptoms / causes / cures doctors just say that it varies
:( I’m praying that they get well! They all seem like humble and genuine people who don’t deserve to go through this
Ishan Ali dude you comment on every UA-cam video I watch, seriously
your back!!!
Caitlyn james same, he’s everywhere!!
Ishan Ali why do I see you on all of buzzfeed’s videos.Just me?
This fibroids treatment 4FibroidsMiracle.blogspot.com had drastically allayed my fears. Of all the fibroids guides I have read, this is the only that comes with genuine and reputable solution. It took me only Three months of using your processes to remove the fibroids from my body.?
I’m 17 now and I got fibroids when I was 15...I had a myomectomy but most of them grew back. Together we can beat this so keep the faith and thank you for sharing your stories, none of us are alone in this.

Such strong beautiful women
This couldn't have came at a better time. I'm 26 and just found out a couple of weeks ago that I have fibroids. I had a 3 month long cycle and end up going to the emergency room and having to get a blood transfusion. Earlier today I was in tears from the fear of my period coming on. This video really made my day and put me at ease just knowing there are a lot of other women like myself going through this.
You are not alone😥🙏
Order herbs from dr Ojo herbal cure www.youtube.com/@Drojo2
i don't have fibroids but i have ovarian cyst and t'was the size of a cantelope...thank God its already removed. And I conceived my 3rd baby with just one ovary..
Dorz Jaiden woman power 💪🏻
I have both and it is not fun 😞
Dorz Jaiden I had one the same size too! Emergency surgery but they were thankfully able to save mine. My cyst was due to endometriosis
+Areona Howard Please look up Dr bergs info on Excess androgens and estrogen dominance. Honey you have to start with your diet and go Organic plant based. The F& Veg you are consuming is GMO. GMO's are plants engineered to tolerate huge amounts of pesticides and these pesticides are mimicking estrogen in your body. Livestock fed grain are eating it too and if you eat them you are getting it through them also. You don't need to suffer just make some big changes to nourish your body and balance its systems. Chronic inflammation leads to other more sinister diseases.
ChronicAly Blooming could you ever feel your cyst or fibroid? If so how did they feel like?
Damn, these stories were intense. Four months ago I had to have an ultrasound because of super heavy and long lasting periods, and it turns out I have one the size of a fist. Now I lost my job and insurance due to covid, and it's acting up like crazy. I can tell it's gotten bigger and it's causing pain down my left leg. I take my hat off to these women.
*hugs you*
You are such a strong people and I admire you
Listening to this brings back so many memories. I’ve been through the crazy heavy cycles, severe pain, blood transfusions (2), iron treatments, birth control. I know where you ladies are and how you have felt. Ultimately, I had to make some very hard decisions concerning my health but I feel so much better! You have my support and prayers!!
I'm so grateful I watched this video... I've felt so isolated with what I've been going through as a young black woman dealing with fibroids. Almost every experience they explain, I am currently GOING THROUGH. Thank you ladies for your testimonies!
I agree! I have them too and it sucks!
So True. Mine are huge. I look like Im 7 months pregnant. I am scheduled for fibroid removal next month. My Dr has the understanding of not TOUCHING my uterus only if my life depends on it.
I have put this off for 3 years. Changed my diet exercised took herbs and still the fibroids grew. I had to come to terms that I was mentally physically and spiritually ready for the surgery. It took a while for me to get here but Im at peace about it.
My mom had fibroids removed before she had me so she had to have a c-section. But no complications during pregnancy! So stay positive ❤️there’s hope !
I have it but people saying if u go to the doctor to removed it you mit not get kids
@@andrekeonbagot7025having fibroids is more of a danger to not having kids. The rapper Eve was able to have kids after she had her fibroids removed
Aww😢 I hope u guys live happy lives❤ ur so pretty and strong👑

My mother and aunty have fibroids and the pain they go through is immense.
Hood Kermit i hope they get better 💞
may ! Thanks 🙏
I had fibroids and a 5lb cyst. I had to have an emergency hysterectomy
Mama Cooks omg I hope your better now! I know this is pretty personal to ask but how was the experience ? ❤️
These women are so beautiful. Stay strong😍😉
I kind of relate... ovarian & uterine cancer at 27... complete hysterectomy & no children. Ladies listen to your body. Be your own advocate!
N G omg I’m so sorry 😢 that’s not fair
My heart to you
If you don’t mind my asking... what were your symptoms? I was just diagnosed with fibroids and I’m scheduled to get an MRI next week and I’m scared.
@@lisaling7431 hi I had constant urination, fatigue, bloating, but no pain.
@@ladybug12627 ty ❤
So frustrating to see how many hoops these women needed to jump through to get the diagnosis and treatment that they needed. So many women I know have had to fight tooth and nail to get their voices heard by their own gp when they know something is wrong. The medical community needs to start listening to women when they speak rather than brushing them off because of stereotypes about women being dramatic and normalization of things that should not be normal (ie debilitating and extremely painful periods)
That’s why I switched to a woman Doctor
Amennn
I got my wife a herbal supplement from Dr Aluda on UA-cam which helped her shrunked her multiple fibroids real quick.
Bless you sisters for sharing your stories, I know it’s scary. I had uterine fibroid surgery at the end of 2017 (myomectomy) and the scariest part is that they didn’t know if they would be able to save my uterus or not, so Before surgery i signed a document that stated if my uterus was damaged due to the fibroids that they would do a full hysterectomy. That was pretty scary, as I don’t have kids but would like to have the option of giving birth in the future. Either way, surgery went great, uterus was fully intact, all fibroids were on the outside of the uterus. they removed 12 fibroids ranging from the size of a pea to a small squash... my belly before surgery was apparently the size of a woman who was 10-weeks pregnant. I was in the hospital for 4 days post surgery and the recovery took 6-weeks. I have more energy and my cycles are a lot better. I was told that the fibroids could come back, Doctor’s can’t tell me how fast that they can grow as it’s all based on hormones, so nothing in terms of diet that I can do (always helps to eat healthy tho). I was also told that bc the fibroids can come back that I should consider having kids within the next 5 years and that a total hysterectomy is recommended after I am done having kids to keep the fibroids from coming back.
jasmine thanks for sharing your story. You’re such a strong person and I’m glad you made it through. 💗
Hi Jasmine your story is alot like mine I had 12 large fibroids removed in 2013 I was 22 at the time the doctors told me the same thing about having children but I was able to concieve two beautiful babies I know everyone's uterus heals differently especially with how deeply involved the tumors were at the time of surgery but there is hope..I have found with research that the consumption of large amounts of animal products increase the reoccurrence of these tumors ...all well wishes to you
Kenzie Covington of course! 😘
Jazmin Johnson thank you for sharing your story and very happy to know you have two beautiful healthy children! 😊 crazy question, lol, but do you still have your uterus? did you have to have c-sections for both of your deliveries? I was told that I will have to have them. Also, did your doctor notice any fibroids during your pregnancy/birthing? Noted about eating meat, I am trying to eat less of it, not easy but to keep the fibroids away, it’s necessary, lol. Thank you again for sharing!!
You’re strong 💪
I wish you All The Best
I had fibroids and had to have iron infusions, which did little . I had three miscarriages and finally a hysterectomy at 42 after I’d had a normal child. I was so miserable. Hang in there girls!
😢😢😢
Thank you for making this video! It's been almost one year since I had my fibroid removed through a laparoscopic myomectomy. Fibroids are so incredibly common for people with uteruses, especially for black people with uteruses, and doctors aren't always as helpful as they could be. It took me three doctors (and a healthy amount of begging) to get the treatment I needed. Listening to your body is SO important. You know it better than anyone else. Spreading information and raising awareness is imperative to helping people living with fibroids get the treatment they need. Thank you to all the people in this video for sharing their stories! You are so brave and beautiful!
Thank you for sharing their stories! I have uterine fibroids & appreciate the women who shared. I too share my story with my friends to encourage awareness. Don’t delay, schedule your annual exam today!
What she said. I delayed but after travelling for holiday and speaking with 2 other doctors I met, they were surprised I was holding back and shocked my doctor didn't push me to do the surgery (in UK) luckily I met a fantastic surgeon and got it done. He was able to save my womb in case of kids in future. Now need to find a decent partner.
I too struggled and suffered from ( a Massive) fibroid---for over 10 years! I share my full testimony on my channel as well! Thanks for sharing your story and getting the message out.
When you can relate, but don’t have insurance ☹️
Go get a book called Back to Eden and get some Noni fruit juice and take back your life girrrl!!!
This hit me so hard. It’s true. 😭 I am in so much pain. I just want my life back.
I’m with you. Go the herbal route before it’s too late. Probably better that way.
Purple girl thanks! I lost weight and it’s seemed to fix it.
@@purplegirl8036 Which herbs help to reduce fibroids size
Thank you!!! I had this 4 years ago, struggle a lot to get better until i've got to the point i could loose my uterus luckly they could save it! I still have some small ones but with exercise and healthy food 4 years have gone by and everythings is good!!!! Please checkyourself eat healthy and exercise!!!
I don’t have this but I do have PCOS and I go through EXTREMELY heavy and painful periods. I am not saying I’ve gone through this because I haven’t and mine wasn’t this extreme but I do go through something similar but nowhere near severe. This is so cool that y’all felt so empowered to share you stories! Thank you!
I had a hysterectomy on 11-15-16 at 35 for my fibroids and they left my ovaries so they didn't force menopause. Thank you for making this video.
I would love to make a video about my story on fibroids. My symptoms were so severe I literally felt like I wasn’t going to make it another day due to too much blood loss . I ended up getting surgery. I’m glad there’s a video on this to inform other women. A lot of women I’m close with kept quiet about personal health struggles. I didn’t know fibroids ran in my family until after my surgery. It would’ve been nice to talk to someone before hand.
Life Of TReshae I know exactly what you mean. I used to daydream about not taking my foot off the accelerator in my car and slamming a wall. Months of being housebound, antisocial, depression, friendships lost... it stole more than my ability to have children....
Katrina Whitaker I could definitely relate to being housebound, antisocial, and depressed during this time. I would have to agree it does steal more than your ability to have children.
Yes indeed. A big problem in the AA community is we keep heath issues to ourselves. It's not everyone's business no. But we could share with the younger generation in our family, our testimonies. So they can be aware
I had a procedure two weeks ago for this and to see this video really helped me to understand that I'm not the only person going through this.I kept it private for some coworkers and one of my other coworkers helped me through it. I appreciate this video immensely.
Damn this already sounds painful just by looking at the title
Numerous things have improved in my own life since I have utilized this fibroids treatment method t.co/49mDk0XaSq . The suggestions on removing fibroid really caught my attention and I also never gave up on applying your help and advice since I have gotten it. This system had turned my unpleasant and daunting experience to a blessing in disguise. The fibroid I had gone away.
I have fibroids and endometriosis and am actually currently dealing with one of my worst flare ups. How comforting to see this vid in my sub box. It's so hard to explain to coworkers.
shylashes it’s the worst to deal with at work! Stay strong xx
I have endometriosis and fibroids too. Solidarity. 💪
Please look up Dr bergs videos on Estrogen dominance, they will change your life. I had both, had them rupture during pregnancy. Both Completely gone by changing my diet. I have written my story five times in this thread because my heart is literally aching over these stories and I am effing enraged at how deficient medicine is.... taking out a women's uterus is criminal and completely avoidable. Please please look him up, it will change your life.
Could you ladies ever feel your fibroids? If so what did they feel like?
@@starlite7785 painful
I was just diagnosed with this! I am so glad you guys are getting this info out there and letting these women share their stories
This has been a devastating health concern for women everywhere, thanks for sharing your story
I had never heard of anything like this before this video and I’m so thankful especially hearing how common it can actually be
It is so helpful for these women to share their stories. Thank you!
I’m actually thrilled to see this video. I’m 33 and I been diagnosed with having Fibroids and of course, this affects everyone differently, I only had the very heavy cycle and now it’s becoming painful. I recently had and ultrasound and Ob appt shortly afterwards and the fibroid is 4cm and it’s laying across the bottom half of my uterus and on my bladder which make need to urinate frequently and urgently. I was like Bianca and blew it off but 2 summers ago I lost weight because i was actually working out but when my cycle came it was extremely heavy, losing the lining of my uterus every time I had to go to the bathroom for 7-10 days. I had an examine and my dr couldn’t see anything because there was so much blood on my uterus and I was not on my cycle at the time. I had a uterine biopsy done and now figuring what the next steps.
I’m Susan Ray from USA... I am the most blessed person on earth right now because i am free from fibroids...i am here to give my testimony about Dr OMO who helped me cure my fibroid, i want to inform the public how i was cured from (FIBROID) by Dr OMO Herbal Home, i visited different hospital but they gave me list of drugs which is very expensive to treat the symptoms and they never cured me. Three months ago a friend suggested that I should try herbal medicine from a very powerful herbal doctor called Dr OMO, I looked up his blog on the internet site and indeed he had immense success with his product. There were lot of persons posting their testimony about how he cured them. when i contacted him he gave me hope and send a Herbal medicine for me to take and how to take it... i took the herbal medicine for just 11 days and i noticed a huge change in my body system and i continued the medications for another 1 week and after that, Dr OMO asked me to go and do a text from the lab to see if i still have the sickness and to my greatest surprise my FIBROID is gone..my FIBROID result just came out negative. My doctor was shocked how i got cured. I am so happy as i am sharing this testimony. My advice to you all who thinks that there is no cure for FIBROID that is Not true...Remember health is wealth...you can contact him on him Email at dromo596@gmail.com and WhatsApp on +2349033505260... He can as well cure

Been there..had to have surgery. But i still have my uterus and i was able to have a baby 1 year later. My son is a blessing. But its still a struggle. Especially with complications due to Anemia. With proper eating habits and excercise it really helps. Thanks so much for sharing ladies. More women need to know about this and know that being anemic is so so serious. Thanks again ✌
"If you don't have insurance..." just sounds horrible to me because I live in a country where everyone HAS to have insurance and I think that's the way it should be. Health is not a damn privilege.
I got my wife a herbal supplement from Dr Aluda on UA-cam which helped her shrunked her multiple fibroids real quick.
I found out I had UF after watching an episode of Being Mary Jane. My cycle lasted for 2 weeks, but the light didn't go off in my head for me to reach out to my OB/GYN until watching the episode. I am fortunate to not be experiencing pain or cramps, but I am living with them. I switched to using a feminine cup because of my heavy cycles and it has been a life changer. Thank you ladies for sharing your experiences w/ the rest of us.
How has it changed your life? Do you think the cup holds more for your heavy cycle
@@latrice8835 yes would like to know as well
Can you share your experience with the feminine cup
Other than the fact that its reusable, which is cost effective its just easier. Once you get over the fact that a little blood will get on your hand, its not so bad. Im able to do activities longer without the thought of changing my pad or tampon. I just apply a pantyliner and keep it moving.
@@foreverMelloYT thank you for answering
I’m going through this right now. I have an MRI this Friday and I don’t wish this on anyone. These women are strong and wish nothing but happiness in your life. Xoxo
So helpful. Bless these women for sharing their stories. It's really difficult yet so many are suffering. On another not, really appreciate the way your lightning flatters ever skin tone 😊
Thank you SO VERY MUCH for talking about this issue. I personally know at least 3 ladies who have gone through a similar experience, including myself, and the most prevalent commonality between each of us (up in BC) is that full treatment took about 3 years to get to, and necessary surgical measures were not taken until symptoms were critical.
Thank you for doing this video! I just had my myomectomy in November. So many people never knew fibroids could cause so many health issues!
Ahh fibroids. My uterus is the size of a 7 month pregnant sized uterus because my fibroids are so big. I look full on pregnant. After years of dealing with this, im finally going to be getting surgery to get it removed, but they need to do a C section to get them out because they’re SO big. Hopefully they can save my uterus, because I really don’t want a hysterectomy. Looking pregnant when you can’t have children is such a trigger. I feel these women. So much empathy.
J. MacDougall I feel you lady. Good luck with it all xxx
Oh sweetheart please consider other options before you do. Its diet related, please look up Dr Bergs info on Estrogen dominance.You need to start eating non GMO foods. Rainbow Organic. Its the pesticides sprayed on crops that mimics estrogen and causes estrogen dominance. I had two so big they ruptured during pregnancy and that was worse pain than childbirth. I wish i knew then what i know now. I have gotten rid of them by changing my diet. Organic whole plant based diet. Anti inflammatory rainbow food. I eat a little grass fed meat and fish but i feel ten years younger, no longer have pain, they have gone. please please follow the breadcrumbs, i don't trust doctors. They are in the business of medicating symptoms and removing body parts NOT functional medicine and integrative health. There are other options promise.
Could you ever feel your fibroids? If so how do they feel?
A few days and my 7 month old 8 year baby is already leaving me.. Praise Jah!!! Noni Fruit is the best
My doctor said are you pregnant I said no later he said are you sure your not pregnant I said no not all. I was thinking I’m just fat. He said I think you may have a tumor in your uterus or either pituitary gland or brain stem. In 10 days I will have an ultrasound to see if I have a tumor in my uterus or not.
Continue to be strong, beautiful and inspiring!
Thanks for making this it helped me think about decisions I might have to make. I'm 42 and probably have these. CT showed them in the ER. Waiting on the transvaginal ultrasound and gynecologist apt to confirm. I was having spotting each month. A month ago, that turned into a full blown period and hot flashes. I ended up in the ER with abdominal pain and mood swings while waiting on blood results and ultrasound. Praying that I don't have too many phone calls ahead until I can get care and relief.
Thank you so much for posting health related videos! It's gonna help people!
Thank you ladies for sharing your stories.
Your going to get through this!! Stay strong & remember to fight like a girl 💗
All these women are so strong and beautiful!!! 💜💜💜
Those women are so brave
What ever happens have faith and keep going... Wish y’all the best!!
Like she said put your health first!! It’s so important. Frequent ER visits can lead to misdiagnosed or not diagnosed issues because they just wanna stabilize you and send you home. Make sure you are seeing the right type of doctor for what your issues are and hopefully they’ll be able to connect the dots on some things rather than treating you for just pain or just anemia.
What a brave soul, sending prayers♀💕
I can relate to this. I had a myomectomy in 2016. They removed 5 tumors and left a very large one behind because they couldn’t remove it without removing my uterus. The other fibroids came back a year later! I’m 38 and never had a child. Very anemic. Considering a hysterectomy because the pain is too much. 😢
Yvette Yvette You should look into UFE.
Awesome video! Learning about this in class.
I'm hearing, and seeing, a very frightening trend here-doctor's not adequately informing their patients, not informing them at all, or simply throwing pills at signs of something that could be serious. It's a well known fact that African American women are more prone to uterine fibroids, so why weren't these women treated more thoroughly and promptly?
Thank you for sharing. Both my grandmother's suffered from fibroids. 1 had 5 chil & the other had 2 & 1 miscarriage. I have had 3....my 3rd was later in life. I don't have insurance. ...but will begin my research to be a good patient. THANK YOU!!
So proud of the women for sharing their journey. I also, found out about two years ago that I have fibroids and let me tell you the symptoms are no joke. I am severely anemic. I have done over 4 blood transfusions within the two years, I just did another blood transfusing last week, I refused to do it earlier at the doctors suggestion and I ended up passing out at the hospital and we had to do a blood transfusion right away, the same goes for all the iron transfusion I have done. Taking Lupron, MRI scans , ultrasounds to find out where the fibroid and how large it is. This is no joke, I feel the same as the women who said, going out in public is hard because you don’t know if your going to bleed through your pad and have a embarrassing accident. I just want it out and when it out I pray that it doesn’t grow back but I have heard so many stories of it growing back and people saying what the point. The point is I want it out and it out now, fibroids does affect your way of life. When I am at work, I can’t function and be at 100% at home, I can be productive and do house chores, I don’t want to go outside because I don’t want embarrass myself or if I can’t get to washroom to change my pad, it soooo bad. I will be happy to get it rid of it.
Thanks for sharing your stories…I am also currently going through this situation and have been to numerous doctors and ER sometimes as well. Right now my partner doesn’t understand and I often feel alone. I recently moved to the city and have a new doctor so I hoping soon something good will happen to me.
Am finally a mother today , because of fibroids my tubes was block for 6years I and my husband was having issue because of my situation no child when I was Searching online on UA-cam about fibroids I saw a testimony about dr Omo so I write him and place order for his herbal today I have 2weeks old baby now he can help you too Herb's work like magic. Both on infections

Thank you for sharing your experiences. It’s an important issue and it’s given me some more perspective
This was such a real and informative video. I believe I may have this, going to the doctor tomorrow. I hope these ladies are doing well.
I've had 4 fibroid removals by the age of 26, and I've had my symptoms regarded with so much suspicion because people think I'm being melodramatic about a heavy cycle. I've had cramps so bad I've ended up on the floor in a cold sweat on the verge of passing out, and at its worst, I was losing 1L of blood every month. I'm so lucky that my last removal and hormone treatment seems to have worked miracles for me, and I could cry just thinking about how it's given me a mostly normal quality of life now. Thank you so much for bringing light to this, Boldly.
jacsarah Going through it was awful wasn’t it? People have ABSOLUTELY no idea how much it can affect a person. Glad to hear you are on the mend. X
thanx jacsarah,people also think im exargerating pain.Im 22 weeks pregnant and baby is pressing on my upper positioned fibroid and my mum in law tells her son as long as she is not bleeding she is fine!!!imagine
How terrible how did you know how much blood you were losing.
Thank you for this video. You gave me a courage to struggle for my better life.
THIS IS CRAZY I am 19 and just got diagnosed with the same thing! No joke I am on sodium & another medication for it right now we just found this out yesterday holy crap I thought I was alone
Nora Theresa Stay strong! You are so brave and powerful, I admire you just as much as the women in the video! ♡♡♡
What were your symptoms like?
Helen Faguy thank you so much I really needed to hear those thoughtful words tonight ❤️
boba_rhett _ Mentally I am more prone to depression, and irritability. Physically, I lose a lot of blood, cramps are SO bad like girls say “omg my periods are so bad feels like I’m being stabbed!” But they can’t relate to the pain I feel. It’s extreme. My periods are also 8-10 days long, and irregular. Like for example I got my period on the 28th last month and I still haven’t gotten it, the month before that was the 18th. Also, I suffer from extreme hot flashes. And usually a week or two my period I’ll have extreme cramps and extreme cramps whilst on my period too. I also vomit and faint because of the pain too :( My gynecologist diagnosed me with polycystic ovarian syndrome with fibroids on my ovaries and uterus so I have to see a GI doctor as well. Sorry for the lengthy response, hope it helped!
That's when I was diagnosed! I hope you find something that works
Thank you for this video.
I'm struggling so much with mine, thank you for making this problem accessible for more women xx
If women experience any discomfort from pedunculated fibroids, it's usually mild. However, some women can have intense discomfort because of these growths.
What gets me is why medical science still see fibroids as a 'mystery', more research would be great!! Uterine artery embolisation worked for me after a year of heavy bleeding due to small fibroids but too small/wrong position for myomectomy... Research all avenues and don't rush is my advice, and remember everyone is different, and so are the fibroids and the way they grow.
I had hysterectomy at 23 due to severe Fibroid tumors that had basically taken over my uterus and the surrounding areas. I had to have 7 blood transfusions over 2 years. Best decision I ever made even though one of the hardest but unfortunately saving my uterus was never an option.
I can relate to this. I lost my uterus this past December. Stay strong. ♡
Mimi Carstairs thoughts are with you love x
You’re so strong I hope you get through this you are so beautiful
There are so many women out there that think they are alone in having fibroids or any issues with their periods and uterus in general and are afraid to speak up. I think it’s great you beautiful strong ladies talked about it. I just got diagnosed with adenomyosis and having fibroids, I just had to have a biopsy of some done as well. All came back good but it’s a terrifying experience. Right now they are going to try and iud to control the symptoms but should that not work my only other option is to remove the uterus completely. Part of it is my fault I neglected getting my regular pap done, we need to take care of ourselves before we let the issues we feel get out of control.
Heal all of my sisters God…the pain, the discomfort, the stomach(embarrassing)is utterly painful. Give us the strength to be able to take care of our daily responsibilities, cover and protect our womb. I’m Jesus name Amen 🙏🏿
I had a uterine fibroid the size of a cantaloupe when I was 15 years old. I had to have it surgically removed via Myomectomy. It left me with a huge scar and they’re unsure whether I’ll be able to have kids or not when I’m ready. 😕
So sorry about the scars, did the symptoms reduce?
Thank you for this video❤️
Thank you for this video I’m currently dealing with fibroids and I’m trying not to go the surgery route more so holistic
This is so unbelievable!! How can I ever explain to the world that a female herbal Dr Omoye dromoye3@gmail.com cured I and my boyfriend from our 6 years herpes. I feel so happy and excited today..
Thank you ladies
I am having a hysterectomy in 4 months. With the difficulties and grief fibroids cause me Im so relieved to get the surgery. I've had 2 children n 32 and im ready
You are all incredible and beautiful
Stay strong💪
thank you so much boldly for sharing this video!, i have my first myomectomy scheduled for next month and im quite scared im only 27 and i need this procedure done because my froid is bigger than 4cm and keeps growing rapidly and is producing me pain that makes me pass out throw out and have high fevers. Although i know is a common thing to have and most woman dont show symptoms im so frustrated that doctors thought it was nothing after going to the er 2 months in a row with debilitating sings that something is wrong!!, thank you for this video it makes me feel less alone
Laura Mora how are you doing now?
Plant Base Diet & Pray
I had these. They were huge. I had them removed via surgery.
I have two half dollar size fibroids aaaaaand endometriosis! It becomes a lifestyle because it never really goes away. I had to work around my cycle so i wouldn't be stuck at work on a "bad day ". And recently, I've been diagnosed with anemia. Ugh.
Wonderful video!
One thing about fibroids reoccurring, if there are no lifestyle changes, they probably will. Watched an amazing lecture explaining that they are to do with hormone imbalance. Please look into these things. Reduced plastics, more alkaline diets and regular exercise can improve things. Birth control generally is terrible in the long run. But please do your research 🙏
I have hope for you! I'll pray too! Get well soon, I hope!
My mother got them later in life its so hard to see her cope with it as well as menopause and high blood pressure she'll get them removed soon hopefully. Its heart breaking to see the pain she go's throw.
My doctor just told me last month that I have uterine fibroids, it came out of nowhere for me. I do experience back pain quite frequently, but apart from that no other symptoms. It‘s scary though, since I‘m still quite young (turning 23 this month) and am afraid of what might come...
Me too just found out today after about 6 visits to my doctor now I have to have Surgery it’s kinda scary
Crazy that this video was posted exactly a week after my open myomectomy. I had a 13 cm fibroid removed. Just the mere size of it was causing my symptoms like back pain and bowel pressure and constipation. I also looked pregnant. Luckily no heavy bleeding.
I was the most scared person. I never wanted to have kids due to the fact that I have a fear of birth, natural and c section. Now here I was faced with having to a c section like procedure. Now that I have had it done, I'm more open to having kids in the future.(crazy)
I'm at home now recovering and glad to have this past me. Best of luck to anyone having this.
I’m watching this now while going through the whole fibroid thing before having surgery really helps me feel like I am not alone
I have fibroids just got UFE surgery 2 weeks ago had horrible symptoms I hope this works I also hope the topic of fibroids become louder so many woman especially Black go through this many times alone and many times the medical community doesn’t give you options you have to do your own research it’s your body! I hope all woman with fibroids get the help they need I love hearing other woman’s stories and procedures and stories! I actually made videos on my fibroid journey as well on my channel! ❤️
How's it going after your UFE?
I had a myomectomy on October 8, 2015. I was told when I went in that I only had 2 fibroids that were both the size of softballs. I actually had 20, the softball size being the biggest, and the smallest was the size of the tip of my pinky. I lost a lot of blood, but did not need a transfusion. I was only in the hospital for 2 days (i left AMA).
Crystal❤ Have they come back since?
@@brsugarbabe
Yes. They have.
@@cryssyluv did you change your diet and lifestyle after the surgery?
@@MyMaxigirl
I did at first, but eventually went back to my same eating habits.
@@cryssyluv you must take charge of your health dear. No cows milk, no red meat, low sugar, little processed foods, less stress, and last but not least exercise.
I just had a myomectomy and I refuse to do it again, I am never touching dairy or red meat again. I love to workout so that’s no problem.
God forbid they come back, I will have a total hysterectomy.
I have tumors all over my body. I'm sorry I hope you're doing well. It's not easy.
i got diagnosed with a fibroid at age 19 and every doctor i went to made me feel so insecure about myself because they said it was uncommon for this age... has anyone else been diagnosed around this age?
Powerful women🙌
Can you do a video like this about ME/CFS?
About a year ago, I had some pretty serious concerns that there was something very wrong with me. Thankfully, going on a birth control did help my symptoms. I really feel for these women, having any issues with your health can be terrifying and difficult to talk about
My mum had uterine fibroids in the summer of 2014. She then had an operation to remove her uterus (hysterectomy) as the fibroids were extremely large. Fortunately for my mum, she did not want any more children as she had me and my 2 siblings. I know how hard it is to go through it or to know someone who is going through it. If you ever experience ANY symptoms, do not be afraid to go to your doctor. Stay strong. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My mom is currently dealing with fibroids and i hope she gets better
