You've been told it's just stress, or maybe a hormonal imbalance. But what if the real reason behind your heavy bleeding, bloating, or infertility is a fibroid—and no one's taken it seriously?In this episode of Cycle Wisdom, Dr. Monica Minjeur unpacks how uterine fibroids can disrupt cycles, impact fertility, and go undiagnosed for far too long. Learn why fibroid location matters more than size, what types affect fertility most, and how a Restorative Reproductive Medicine approach can offer real answers without suppressing your cycle. If you've been brushed off or offered nothing but birth control or surgery, this episode offers hope—and a new path forward.

In this episode of Black Women's Health, discover how to:- Spot your risk early - ethnicity, family history, and low vitamin D matter- Use routine ultrasound and lab tests to catch fibroids before they grow, before they become symptomatic- cut every day exposures that can fuel fibroid growth- choose treatment based on your age, fertility goals and symptoms - not every woman with fibroids needs a hysterectomy.

Have you heard of the term Oligohydramnios? Low amniotic fluid (oligohydramnios) is a condition in which the amniotic fluid measures lower than expected for a baby's gestational age. Today's guest was preparing to conceive and had a myomectomy to remove her fibroids.  Christina Danyo learned she was expecting after her fibroid surgery.  During her 20 week anatomy scan she learned that her baby girl's kidneys did not develop and was covered in cysts.  Her daughter was diagnosed with Oligohdramnios or low/no amniotic fluid and her lungs also did not develop.  Christina was faced with the decision with the diagnosis not compatible with life.  In this episode, we discuss the decision she and her husband made to carry to full term, she delivered her baby girl via C-section at 37 weeks, preparation for delivering a baby given a fatal diagnosis, and her time spent honoring her angel during her less than 2 hour life and beyond.

Fertility Docs Uncensored is hosted by Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center, and Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center. In this episode, “Fibroids, Friend or Foe?” the docs dive into one of the most common—and often confusing—topics in reproductive medicine: uterine fibroids and their impact on fertility. They break down the different types of fibroids—submucosal, intramural, and subserosal—and explain why location is often more important than size when it comes to whether a fibroid should be removed. Fibroids that distort the uterine lining can interfere with embryo implantation by causing inflammation or friction, making pregnancy more difficult. The docs explain the surgical options for fibroid removal, including hysteroscopy (removal through the cervix), laparoscopy, and laparotomy (which address fibroids from outside the uterus). They also discuss fluid management during hysteroscopy to ensure patient safety. Beyond fertility concerns, fibroids may need to be removed if they're causing significant bleeding or pelvic pressure. Finally, they touch on recovery and why patients may need to wait several months after surgery before attempting pregnancy. If fibroids are part of your fertility journey, this episode is a must-listen.  This episode was sponsored by ReceptivaDx. 

When Oscar winning film star Lupita Nyong'o revealed on Instagram her decade long struggle with uterine fibroids it attracted almost a million likes. The post has sparked a global debate about a health problem that affects millions of women around the world but is rarely talked about. Fibroids are non-cancerous growths that develop in the uterus, the medical term for a woman's womb. Symptoms can be severe and include heavy menstrual bleeding, painful periods and stomach pain. Black and Asian women are more likely to be affected, and we bring together three women who share their experiences of living with the condition. “A woman sitting across from you at work who's smiling and having a conversation may be dying inside,” Sateria tells us. This episode of The Documentary, comes to you from BBC OS Conversations, bringing together people from around the world to discuss how major news stories are affecting their lives.

Far too often we hear the same story, a woman gets diagnosed with fibroids and is told her only option is a full hysterectomy. In this interview, Kit Maloney and Rachel Rose talk with Miara Pack, who shares her journey of saying no to the white coat and bravely charting her own course. Miara opens up about her experience with painful cycles and dismissive doctors and her choice to pursue natural healing: yoni steaming, breathwork, and lifestyle changes alongside western medical care. A cornerstone of her healing was her connection with Kit, the founder of Kitara, whose compassionate presence was a consistent source of strength, wisdom, and love. We're honored to share this conversation of healing, self-empowerment, and the sacred bond between women supporting each other to reconnect to their wombs and inner wisdom.

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.

In this heartfelt and powerful episode, I sit down with Dr. Katashia Kendrick—pharmacist turned integrative wellness practitioner—to unpack the often silent and isolating journey of fibroids, endometriosis, infertility, and hysterectomy. Katashia courageously shares her personal health story, one that spans decades of pain, misdiagnosis, and emotional grief, and how she turned it into a mission to help women better understand their bodies and reclaim their power.We explore:

In this episode, I sit down with Melissa of Fab Glance—a lifestyle influencer, digital strategist, and one of the realest voices online—to have a deeply personal conversation about women's health, fibroids, and her decision to have a hysterectomy. After sharing my own story in a previous episode, I opened the door for others to speak up—and Melissa walked through it with vulnerability, courage, and honesty. We talk through the emotional and physical realities of living with fibroids, navigating the decision to be child-free, and how society often places unfair expectations on women's bodies. Melissa also shares what it was like to date after surgery and the fear of how people would react to her health decisions. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that women's health journeys are never one-size-fits-all. We also discuss:

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.

Uterine Fibroids: What You're Not Being Told About Your Treatment OptionsUterine fibroids affect up to 80% of women by age 50, yet most are not given the full range of treatment options. In this episode, I speak with leading fibroid experts—including minimally invasive surgeons, interventional radiologists, and advocates—to unpack the medical, financial, and structural reasons why hysterectomy is so often pushed as the default solution.Whether you're trying to preserve fertility, manage chronic pain, or simply want to know what questions to ask at your next appointment, this episode is a must-listen.

In this episode of The Pelvic Floor Connection, I'm talking to you, if you are preparing for gynaecological surgery, or know someone who is. If you're waiting for a date, feeling anxious, or unsure what you should be doing in the lead-up to your operation, this is essential listening.I explore why pre-op preparation is so important and why it's often overlooked. I explain how to become your own best advocate within a strained medical system, when it comes to really healing well, managing pressure in the body, and supporting recovery through breath work and movement.This episode walks you through key questions to ask your consultant in advance of your surgery, how to prepare for the days and weeks after surgery, and why treating your recovery like a “fourth trimester” can make all the difference. You'll also learn the importance of understanding your breathing mechanics, how your pelvic floor works under load, and why cues like “exhale on the effort” can be incredibly protective — both in the operating theatre and beyond.If you're heading into surgery (or supporting someone who is), this episode will help you feel more informed, empowered, and connected to your body through the entire process.

“Your normal is different than everybody else's.” There's so much misinformation out there about hormones. The misunderstanding of the Women's Health Initiative findings did massive damage to women's health. It basically ruined an entire generation of physicians who now buy into the false narrative on the dangers of hormone replacement. Today I'm doing a review episode all about my book, The Hormone Balance Bible. I wrote the book not for you to read from cover to cover but so that you can look at the relevant sections as you go through certain stages of your life. 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:
