Herbal Treatment For Ovarian Cyst That Work

What is an ovarian cyst?
Ovarian cysts may be best described as fluid encased follicles within the ovaries measuring the size of a pea to a cantaloupe (medium sized). When the follicles are larger than 2 centimetres, then the growth is said to be a cyst. Most of the ovarian cysts are functional, benign and create very little or no trouble at all till the get ruptured or grow enormous in dimension. Almost every woman who has not attained menopause has these cysts in the US. It has been found that 14.8% of women after menopause have the cyst. Ovarian Carcinoma is found in 15 cases out of 100000 women each year. In recent years, herbal treatments to cure ovarian cysts have become popular.
Ovarian cysts affect women of all ages. But they occur in most cases at the stage of life when she can have a baby. In some cases the cysts give rise to problems, such as bleeding and pain and may have to be surgically removed.
Ovarian cyst options for treatments
The fact is, ovarian cysts today are a major cause of excessive bleeding, infertility and pain in women. You need to test to be sure because they are in most cases benign. Surgery remains the most popular treatment option. But in reality, in most cases, surgery is not desirable and is also not a feasible alternative. This is because surgery often leads to side effects such as the cysts coming back in the future. ‘Synthetic Hormone Therapy’ is another option. Hysterectomy is also one more options that are presented to women. In recent years however, ‘Ovarian Cyst Herbal Treatments’ have become available as a treatment option.
It takes about three to six months for 100% relief from cysts with the herbal treatment approach. Of course, this can vary depending on the size of the cyst and how many of them are there. The liver also needs to be supported and cleaned simultaneously, as it can regulate the hormone levels in the body, and can also clean the blood. The diet is also important here as there are a few food items that can make the situation worse - and there are some that can control the cyst and how frequently they appear.
Foods
Green leafy vegetables, particularly when taken in the raw form can both provide relief and stop the cyst from making a comeback. Plus, you should also go for whole foods, whole grains, legumes, fruits and garlic. And the ones that are to be avoided are processed and refined foods, red meat, fat, carbonated beverages, caffeine, eggs, alcohol and sugar. Remember, a natural and balanced diet makes you healthy and fit.
From week 2 to the arrival of the menstrual cycle
Here is a herbal treatment that can be useful in this period. It has 3 capsules of vitex & black cohosh, 2 capsules of dandelion root & black haw, 1 capsule that has bee pollen, pau d’arco and chaparral. Take this 2 times in a day. Take this from the 2nd week after the cycle till the period begins again.
From the starting to the 2nd week
During this period the herbal treatment consists of taking 3 capsules of milk thistle and black and blue cohosh, 2 capsules of ‘wild yam’, and 1 capsule of chaparral, pau d’ arco, yarrow and bee pollen. This combination too needs to be consumed twice a day.
Please remember to supplement these medicines with vitamins A, E and C.
These therapies need to be practiced for 3 months (minimum) alternatively and this needs to go on for one year. IT depends on the length and the severity of the problem. But do remember that the above mentioned method and medicines are only a ‘General Suggestion’.
Holistic approach towards total recovery
The most effective way to total recovery is in holistic treatments. Ovarian cyst herbal treatments also are more effective if the holistic approach is taken up. Thus, it can be said that the holistic approach works more effectively and cannot be matched up with when it comes to the results. Where the conventional system and the holistic one differ is that, in the conventional approach, diagnosing and treating the symptoms is given a priority, whereas in the holistic way, more importance is given to finding out a healthy spirit/body/mind combination that can prevent the cysts. Holistic approach also focuses on uncovering the primary causes of the condition and leverages the power of natural therapies to eradicate the main contributing factors of ovarian cysts. This approach is often more effective as the healing is faster, there is no need for surgery and the medical interventions are also less.
Awareness - this is where the holistic approach begins from. It has been proven that when a patient knows what the problem is, she would co-operate and work in partnership. Once she has been reassured that ovarian cysts are really quite common in her reproductive phase, she would whole heartedly cooperate and support the therapy, so very vital in speedy recovery. The truth that ovarian cysts are quite harmless and they are nothing abnormal will also help in regaining her confidence. Conclusively speaking, ovarian cyst herbal treatments when applied with the holistic approach yield a better result.
