A member asked:
I have a uterine fibroid on my ovary and i have type 1 diabetes is there an natural alternative to shrinking the fibroid instead of surgery?

Menopause: If you can wait until menopause the lack of estrogen will decrease the size of your fibroid.

Not on the ovary: Uterine fibroids are benign 'tumors' which occur on the uterus itself and not on the ovary. I am not aware of any 'natural alternatives' that will shrink fibroids.
