Fibroids are incredibly common. Anywhere from 40% to 80% of people with a uterus will develop this growth, which is benign but can bring severe symptoms like pain, heavy bleeding, and reproductive issues. These symptoms can be not only physically debilitating but also cause emotional and social issues. During a trip to her home country of Jamaica in September 2024, host Sandra Lindsay, RN, interviewed three women whose lives have been deeply impacted by uterine fibroids for years. With the country facing a large backlog in this type of surgery, these women, like so many more, were unable to get surgery, which is why Sandra organized a team of OB/GYNs to travel with her to Jamaica to treat these women at no cost. In this episode, you'll hear their stories and learn more about Northwell's collaborative efforts to provide pro bono fibroid surgeries in Jamaica. This is episode two in a four-part series documenting Northwell's partnership with Jamaica's Ministry of Health to improve women's health on the island.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Esmira: Hello, Can low cholesterol be an issue. I eat primarily low fat white fish with lots of vegetables and exercise daily. My cholesterol is below the reference range. I don't eat much fat and am wondering if I should be concerned about the low cholesterol? Thank you                                                                                                                      Nikolina: Dear Dr. Cabral, do you have any information on how to ged rid of fibroids in the breast. Since I got my second child I have one which does not stop growing. It is growing much slower since I do intermittent fasting, but I was wondering why do I always get them in my breast. Is my body missing something (I used to have them since I am 25 but they all stoped growing at 1 cm, and now they are even smaller. This one has a sensitive hormon receptor the doctor said. I was wondering why do I get fibrocystic breast changes breast changes. In Traditional Chinese Medicine they say fibroadenoma is caused by mucus.                                                                                                                                                     Emily: Hi Steven. Thank you so much for all you do! I am curious, I have the slow COMT gene snp. I have been told to avoid supplements such as quercetin and rhodiola as they can effectively slow down COMT even further. I'm interested in the histpro supplement for seasonal allergies but I see quercitin is one of the top ingredients. Do you have any other suggestions for allergy products or could you please shed some light on quercetin for slow com? Also with slow comt, would fasting be contraindicated as adrenaline is released while fasting, which is the opposite of what we want and would further bog down comt? Thanks so much for your input! Best wishes                                                                                       Leora: My 4 year old was diagnosed with enamel hypoplasia. What could have caused this? The dentist said it could have been a result of illness during pregnancy (I had covid and a fever at 36 weeks pregnant). I would like to avoid this with my future pregnancies and children if possible. He received silver caps on his teeth. Are these dangerous for him? Will this lead to heavy metals in his blood stream. Of course, every dentist I asked said no, but I wonder if they learn about this during their studies. He also received large amounts of antibiotics as a child (age 1.5 years to 3 years) due to a misdiagnosis of neutropenia. Could this have impacted his teeth?                                                                                                  Cristina: Dr. Cabral, thank you for your generosity and support and for helping so many people looking for answers. My question is related to the effectiveness of Prenuvo brain scan (as a part of the whole body scan) compared to Dr. Amen's brain scan. Do you know if they provide the same valuable information on issues with the brain or are they different? I have a child on the spectrum and was wondering if the Prenuvo scan would help me identify issues that my child might have, such as brain damage as well as whole body issues. Also, is there a treatment plan recommended by Prenuvo after the scan is performed.

When Coach Phyllis watched her mother suffer through fibroids and ultimately lose her uterus to a hysterectomy, she never imagined she would face the same diagnosis years later. Despite her background in nursing and personal training, Phyllis found herself with four large fibroids, the biggest measuring nine centimeters—about the size of a grapefruit.Facing pressure from doctors to undergo surgery, she made a life-changing decision to search for another way. What began as a personal healing journey transformed into a mission that has now helped hundreds of women avoid unnecessary surgeries and reclaim their reproductive health through what she calls the "Unique Holistic Formula."The statistics are staggering: nearly 80% of women of African descent develop fibroids by age 50, yet traditional medicine typically offers limited solutions—watchful waiting, hormone treatments, or surgical intervention. Coach Phyllis challenges this approach by addressing the root causes of fibroids: hormonal imbalance, chronic inflammation, and lymphatic system stagnation brought on by stress, poor nutrition, and emotional disconnection.What makes her method revolutionary is the emphasis on the mind-body-spirit connection. "Fibroids don't just appear," she explains. "They are a result of miscommunication between the mind, body, and spirit." Through targeted womb-centered workouts, personalized nutrition, herbal support, and emotional regrounding practices, she's helped women transform their bodies in as little as 30 days—with photographic evidence to prove it.For women concerned about fibroid prevention or management, Coach Phyllis offers three foundational recommendations: eliminate dairy products which promote inflammation, develop consistent stress management practices, and prioritize regular movement with special attention to getting adequate vitamin D. These practical steps represent starting points for women at any stage of their fibroid journey.Ready to reclaim your womb health naturally? This conversation isn't just informative—it's potentially life-changing for the millions of women suffering silently with fibroids and hormonal imbalance.

In The Hormone Balance Bible, I break down the 12 hormonal archetypes and what to do to start the healing journey for each one.  For this episode,  I'm talking about how you can start figuring out which archetype you are, the characteristics of each type, symptoms you might be noticing, the kinds of women I see in my practice for each archetype, and more. Enjoy the episode!   Highlights What I'm sharing today about the Hormone Balance Bible The concept and creation of the Hormone Balance Bible How I came up with the twelve hormonal archetypes Why it was important to me to include processes with which women could heal themselves Archetype #1: The Queen - Estrogen Dominance Archetype #2: The Unbalanced Heroine - Progesterone Deficiency Archetype #3: The Mother - High Estrogen, Low Progesterone Archetype #4: The Wise Woman - Menopause Archetype #5: The Workaholic - Excess Cortisol Archetype #6: The Saboteur - Low Cortisol Archetype #7: The Nun - Low Testosterone Archetype #8: The Warrior - High Testosterone Archetype #9: The Underdog - Hypothyroidism/Subclinical Hypothyroidism Archetype #10: The Overachiever - Hyperthyroidism Archetype #11: The Chairwoman - Estrogen Dominance + Excess Cortisol Archetype #12: The Philosopher The medical system's poor treatment of menopausal women   Episode Resources: Dr. Shawn Tassone's Practice | https://www.drshawntassone.com Dr. Shawn Tassone's Book | The Hormone Balance Bible Dr. Shawn Tassone's Integrative Hormonal Mapping System | Hormone Archetype Quiz   Thank you to our sponsor, Endurance Products Company!

Dr. Fiona Lovely is a longevity, health and wellness expert with specialties in menopause medicine, functional neurology and functional medicine.  She is speaking to the topics of women's health around perimenopause and menopause.   Uterine fibroids are a very common concern for women who are still menstruating.  They are the cause of extreme and chronic pain, heavy bleeding and there aren't great treatment options available.  Today I welcome Dr Suzanne LeBlang to the show to discuss a novel therapy for treatment of fibroids - focused ultrasound.   I had never heard about this treatment until Dr. LeBlang shared her knowledge.  This conversation highlights how the non-invasive technique can treat uterine fibroids using thermal ablation, without the need for incisions or injections.  This is also available for many other health concerns such as thyroid nodules,  Parkinson's disease, breast tumours, tremors and others.  It has been FDA approved since 2004.  Overall, this episode underscores the importance of non-invasive treatment options for women's health concerns, with focused ultrasound emerging as a promising alternative for various conditions. Dr. LeBlang is the Director of Clinical Relationships at the Focused Ultrasound Foundation (FUS) and was trained as a neuroradiologist.  You can find out more about this treatment option at fusfoundation.org or on Instagram here.     Thank you to our sponsors for this episode:

Are fibroids and cysts really the enemy, or could they be your body's way of protecting you? In this eye-opening episode of Integrative You Radio, we unravel the truth behind these common conditions affecting women's health.

Tune in now to gain a deeper understanding of your body's resilience and how to empower your healing journey.

Hidden Culprits Behind Reproductive Health Issues Environmental toxins, dietary choices, and undiagnosed gut issues play a significant role in the development of fibroids and cysts, with fat-soluble toxins accumulating in reproductive tissues over time. Holistic Prevention and Solutions Addressing these issues requires a personalized approach, including detoxifying the liver, balancing blood sugar, and switching to toxin-free personal care products to support long-term health and prevention..  Quotes:  "Your body is incredibly intelligent—fibroids and cysts aren't just random; they're protective mechanisms, walling off toxins and harmful substances to keep you safe. The key is understanding what's causing them and addressing the root issues."- Dr. Nicole "Fibroids and cysts are not a failure of your body—they're its way of adapting and protecting you.

Over 50% of the population consumes ultra-processed foods, putting them at risk for vitamin and nutrient deficiencies. Many people have a vitamin D deficiency, magnesium deficiency, zinc deficiency, potassium deficiency, or vitamin B1 deficiency and don't even know it! In this video, I'll share 21 important signs of vitamin deficiency. 1. Tingling in the toes, also known as peripheral neuropathy, can be caused by a vitamin B1 deficiency. Pork, liver, meat, eggs, and sunflower seeds are the best sources of vitamin B1. 2. Cracks in the corner of the mouth can be caused by a vitamin B2 deficiency. Consume liver, red meat, and eggs to increase vitamin B2 intake. 3. Thinning hair can be caused by a biotin deficiency. Without enough biotin, you can't make keratin, the protein needed to make hair. 4. Premature graying of the hair can be caused by a vitamin B9 deficiency. Folate (vitamin B9) repairs DNA, helps prevent cancer, and supports melanin production. 5. Mouth ulcers can be caused by a vitamin B12 deficiency. To increase your intake, consume more red meat, liver, and clams. 6. Deep pelvic bone pain can be caused by vitamin D deficiency. 7. Heavy menstrual bleeding can be caused by high estrogen levels or a vitamin K1 deficiency. Dark leafy green vegetables and liver are the best sources of vitamin K1. 8. Heavy menstrual cramping can be caused by calcium buildup due to a magnesium deficiency. Dark leafy green vegetables and pumpkin seeds are the best sources of magnesium. 9. Fibroids can be caused by too much estrogen, but vitamin D can help keep them in check. 10. Eye twitching, also known as tetany, can be caused by a magnesium deficiency. 11. Heart pounding can be caused by a potassium deficiency. You need 4700 mg of potassium per day. 12. Chronic cough can be caused by a calcium deficiency. Calcium lactate is the best calcium supplement. 13. Ice cravings can be caused by iron deficiency. Try increasing your intake of red meat or liver before resorting to supplements. 14. Low libido can be caused by a zinc deficiency. Shellfish, especially oysters, and red meat are the best sources of zinc. 15. Hearing loss can be caused by a vitamin B12 deficiency. 16. Fibrocystic breasts can be caused by excess estrogen, which may result from low iodine. To increase iodine intake, consume sea kelp, seaweed, and shellfish. 17. Dry, flaky skin is a classic sign of omega-3 fatty acid deficiency. For this problem, consume high-quality cod liver oil or fish oil. 18. Muscle weakness can be caused by a vitamin E deficiency. Tocotrienols may help. 19. Fatty liver—choline deficiency can cause a fatty liver. Egg yolk and liver are the best sources of choline. 20. Cold sores can be caused by a virus, but increasing lysine can help put the virus in remission. 21. High lipids can be regulated with the help of niacin (vitamin B3).

Fibroids decrease in size after menopause, yet pregnancy, exposure to HRT, and birth control pills can cause fibroids to enlarge. Obesity, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and PCOS also increase the risk of fibroids. Black women have a 3 to 9 times higher risk of developing fibroids. Estrogen is the primary driver of fibroids and endometriosis. A fibroid is a growth in the uterus, but it differs from uterine tissue in several ways. Fibroids are very sensitive to estrogen and have increased estrogen receptors, more of the enzyme aromatase, less oxygen than the uterus, and more inflammation. Many health problems and risk factors associated with fibroids are related to low vitamin D. Vitamin D has incredible properties that may help inhibit the growth of fibroids. There is also a vast amount of anecdotal evidence in support of using vitamin D to shrink fibroids. Be sure to take vitamin D with the cofactors magnesium and vitamin K2.
