Acupuncture and Chinese herbs have been used successfully in treating Uterine Fibroids. To read more about Chinese Herbal Therapy for Uterine Fibroids go to http://www.itmonline.org/arts/fibroids.htm
It is very important to find a Licensed Acupuncturist/Chinese herbalist who has a history in treating this condition. To do so go to NCCAOM.com to make sure that they are board certified. Good Luck!

I find that inflammation, PH, and general toxicity can all contribute to the growth of fibroids. The short answer might be a hormone regulator such as Vitex and the use of herbs like chaparral and yarrow to help shrink the tumors. As always, I suggest you consult a practitioner for a complete program.
