The Fibroid Treatment Journey. Wednesday, March 29th, 2017 Chantell has been suffering from symptomatic fibroids from the last 7 years.

The Fibroid Treatment Journey

The painful symptoms of fibroids took over her personal as well as work life. She had to take at least 3 days off every month during her menstrual cycle as the pain was so debilitating that a basic activity like changing clothes was a challenge. Chantell wouldn’t driver her car during her menstrual cycle as she felt so weak. During her interview with USA Fibroid Centers we asked her if she ever received any treatment for symptomatic fibroids before and came to know that her OBGYN prescribed her hormonal therapy which didn’t work out for fibroids, and then suggested surgical treatment options; myomectomy or hysterectomy. ” I always wanted to have a child in the future.

Exercise can boost your energy, improve your mood, and tap into your body’s natural painkillers.
