Surgery removes the fibroid, but Ayurveda addresses the root environment that allowed it to grow.

Why Surgery Isn't Always the First Answer

Many women with uterine fibroids (myomas) are told that a hysterectomy or myomectomy is their only option. However, unless the fibroid is causing life-threatening bleeding or severe compression of other organs, conservative medical management should be the first line of defense. Surgery carries risks, long recovery times, and hormonal consequences.

The Ayurvedic Perspective: What Causes Fibroids?

In Ayurveda, fibroids are understood as "Garbhashaya Arbuda" — a condition primarily caused by an imbalance of Kapha and Vata doshas, leading to the accumulation of toxins (Ama) in the reproductive tissues (Artava Dhatu). By clearing this accumulation, the body can naturally begin to reduce the fibroid mass.

The AyurCity Protocol: Medical Management & Panchakarma

Our approach typically involves 6 to 12 months of targeted herbal medications aimed at regulating hormones and shrinking the fibroid. For optimal results, we often integrate physician-supervised Panchakarma therapies like Virechana and Basti to deeply detoxify the body and reset the metabolic environment.
