Fibroids are very serious issues in Nigeria, where he practiced for over 14 years. Fibroids are becoming a real problem in Nigeria after the death of the popular MEEDamijan sneer of postoperative complications in 1996 removal of fibroids. I was a very young sonographer at the time and I witnessed thousands of women and to this day fibroids is still a big problem. I have br opportune to have traveled to 4 continents in the world [of Africa, Asia, Middle East and Europe] and worked in Africa and Europe as a specialist sonographer, fibroids remains a problem is much stronger in Africa. It is also big business, good pay for the surgeon and the money is also good for traditional healers. br I have no problem with traditional healers and practitioners of alternative medicine, but what I think is that some of them must give accurate information to patients. br I have attended many women in Nigeria who have visited some of these alternative medicine practitioners who claimed to be able to give you a little mix that make these women to excrete fibroids, to me this is not fair, for years I've followed these women and I must confess that received no known cure. br I'm not against anyone taking any form of healing you want whether orthodox or traditional, but safety must come first, NAFDAC should confirm that these draft safe for human consumption. br I also noticed that some of the mixture given to these women with fibroids and infertility problems are the same as used in women with infertility problems in general. Of the numerous scans I did on this subject in Nigeria, I realized that your ovaries produce multiple mature follicles than usual, demonstrating that these drugs contain some natural hormonal substances that stimulate the ovaries and to help infertile women become pregnant . br If these drugs are administered to women with fibroids, they could lead to an increase in the size of fibroids. Although these women are looking to reduce the size of the fibroids, the mixture given size increases [Please be careful]. This mixture must also be known to lead to kidney failure. br I made clear that any woman with fibroids do not get stressed, if there danger signs, be relaxed, do not go running up and down and get cheated. br If you are a patient of infertility with known fibroids do not always assume that fibroids are the problem, test the box to the fallopian tubes, ovarian function, sperm tests, etc. [Ask your gynecologist for more information]. If you have excessive bleeding or large fibroids are very sure to consult your doctor, surgery is better in this case because fibroids can distort or compress the ureters and to kidney problems. br I especially talk to the consultant radiologists in Nigeria, uterine artery embolization [UAE] is relatively inexpensive and very effective treatment for fibroids. It only takes one unit of Xray fluoroscopy, which is available in some schools in Nigeria. br I have met women in Nigeria, who paid as much as for traditional healing N200000 of fibroids and they are getting nowhere. br uterine artery embolization is known for his work, I have attended some women in Europe who have done and seen the masses of the fibroids shrink, saving women the complication of surgery. br radiologists recommend that Nigeria should come to Europe and learn these skills Nigerian women need to be saved from unnecessary surgery complications, and use of mixtures of some healers strange strange. br br
