If you are looking for a cure for symptomatic fibroids, you will not find it by reading this book. there is absolutely no credible reserach in peer reviewed medical journals that proves women can cure fibroids by diet, herbs, supplements, exercise, balancing hormones, etc. This is an outdated book and the dr is not supportive of medical interventions such as Uterine Artery Embolization and the various types of myomectomy surgery. Some of what the dr discusses puts the blame squarely on women for their condition which I found to be insulting. Another words if you have stress in your life, unhappy family life, anger, anxiety, or are unfulfilled in some way, it can lead to uterine fibroids. this is nonsense, and no scientific studies have ever been done to prove this theory. There are many happy women who maitain very healthy diets, exercise regularly, have balanced hormones etc and they too can suffer from fibroids. Another sad example of the male dr blaming women for their condition. I have known many women, including myself, who have suffered with fibroids who did not find their answers from this book. Even the dr admits that once your fibroid condition is too far advanced the program he prescribes will not eliminate the need for surgery. I would never suggest a woman wanting to learn about fibroids read this book.

I received my book on time and well package. I do recommend this book for all those who are going through situations like fibroids. It is a good treatment plan instead of surgery. I am following up a diet with exercise and I feel great as if I don't have anything inside of me . Follow the advices on this book and you will not need to go through surgery with this book. It is an excellent book I highly recommended .

I like the book, but honestly I expected a little more. The book is with no doubt, an excellent source of general information about Fibroids. And the most complete one, that I have read so far. I believe my frustration is more regarding the title that has been given to it, which may lead you to think you are purchasing a real step-by-step "guide" to be followed towards the healing of fibroids. This doesn't happen. The information is indeed awakening and very helpfull, but it's all in a very general way. He explains each one of surgery procedures and their pros and cons, and he keeps on explaining about food, herbs, suplements, exercises, and their importance on the healing process, but do not expect a real "guidance" on a daily basis, like how much of each you are supposed to have. I like the book, because it gave me a different perspective. Now I know I have other options rather than surgery only, but it is really something you should look for a natural or holistic doctor (which he suggests and gives a list of names and phone #s) in order to start a proper natural healing treatment that will suit you.
