A bit about fibroids...

• Fibroids are benign/non-cancerous growths, that live within the uterine cavity, uterine wall, and on the outer surface of the uterus. 
• Research has shown that high levels of estrogen and the presence of unbalanced hormones drive the growth of fibroids. 
• Fibroids range in size, from microscopic to larger than a grapefruit.
• Many women with fibroids have no symptoms and happen to find out during other medical procedures, and during pregnancy, that they have them.
• Women with symptoms can experience a range of different things, including: heavy bleeding, bloating and "fibroid belly", extremely long periods, spotting between periods, infertility, miscarriage, anemia, frequent urination, gastrointestinal issues, depression and more.
• Although all women can experience fibroids, Black women are more prone to fibroids than women of other races. 

Q: Will my fibroids eventually go away on their own?

A: Without some form of treatment- whether conventional or holistic- fibroids usually do not just go away. However, during menopause, when estrogen levels drop, a lot of women experience shrinking or total elimination of fibroids. 

Q: How do I know if I have fibroids?

A: The best way to know for sure, is to get some medical/diagnostic imaging done. Symptoms of fibroids can be very similar to other gynecological issues. Also, not all women have the same symptoms. If you are experiencing heavy, long, painful periods, a distended abdomen or feel hard growths in your abdomen, please be encouraged to get imaging done. 

Q: My doctor says you can't get rid of fibroids naturally, and I will need a surgical procedure to remove them. Is this true?

A: Most doctors do not believe in holistic treatments and that's okay. They stick to what they know and therefore will recommend surgical procedures, or outright dismiss holistic approaches. Fortunately, Tenderyoni knows that a holistic approach to healing fibroids is not only possible, but more effective than a surgery- in the long run, because we will address the root cause of your fibroids. We recognize that a natural or holistic approach to healing fibroids can take some time and this may deter a lot of women from taking the holistic route, but we aim to give you the tools you need, to experience freedom from the symptoms of fibroids. 

Q: Can I get pregnant with fibroids?

A: Many women have had successful pregnancies with fibroids, while others have gotten pregnant and have not been able to maintain the pregnancy, due to the rapid growth of fibroids as hormone levels rise. Others have experienced infertility due to fibroids. Every case of fibroids is different and will have different effects on the outcome of a pregnancy. We recommend getting imaging done before attempting to get pregnant, to address any issues before hand. 

Q: When will I begin to see results if I decide to work with Tenderyoni?

A: Every case of fibroids is different. Those with smaller or fewer fibroids may see results faster than someone with very large or many fibroids. We encourage all clients to commit to a minimum of 90 days (about 3 menstrual cycles) before deciding to stick to the program or not. Within that time, clients have experienced shorter, less painful periods, lighter periods, extended cycles, better digestion, flatter abdomens and more!
