uterine fibroid and pregnancy
Would you carry a child to term for your sister?
Recently, my mom and my sister has tried to persuade me into carry my sister and her husband's baby. My sister has serious problems with her womb, she has a cloged tube, and uterine fibroid. She said she would pay us 10,000 dollar for compensation of my suffering of pregnancy and labor.~ Not that we needed the money.
My sister and I have been close when we were growing up, but I can't imagine to hand over my own child to anyone and I really don't want to hurt her feeling, what should I do? (Biological child) We only had one child, and was plannning to have another one, now that she mention that she wanted our second one, it makes it hard for me to carry another, without the guilt
I don't know if your sister has thought this through. For something as drastic as this, she has picked you? Absolutely, say no! You may feel guilted or browbeaten by your sister and your mom but they are whacked out on some sort of new age fairy dust to even suggest such a thing! Why have they not considered this: you would be carrying a baby, giving birth to her or him, and handing the baby over immediately to your sister. Then you would be missing said baby but seeing said baby often, as aforementioned party of the fifth part (part of you/your husband/her/her husband/ baby team) grows up in front of your eyes! You shouldn't be afraid to carry your own child - because it would make your sister feel bad - but you should run like hell from any suggestion that you would be surrogate mother for hers!
Honestly, what mania is running through your family these days - you've been offered money that could just as easy be offered to another experienced, well-adjusted surrogate mother who is not a member of your family and doesn't have to live with all the tension arising for many YEARS after the birth. Is your sister absolutely crazy from the infertility problems that she is clutching to you like someone sinking with the Titanic?
Tell her firmly and clearly 'No' and stand your ground or you will regret it. Tell her you will hold her hand as she searches for a suitable surrogate and you will give her all the moral support in the world, including waiting to have your second child until after she has her first. This is an incredible GIFT - to alter your own life plans because of your sister's panic at having a child. But do it anyway - she sounds like she wants people around her to give in to this craziness and you can afford to wait until her frantic quest is done.
Many women of childbearing age suffer with fibroids and fibrocystic breast disease. For many the condition will prohibit planning a pregnancy.
Many post-menopausal women are taking estrogen replacement drugs that help control hot flashes and mood. However there are so many research studies implicating estrogen replacement with an increased risk of cancer, it hardly seems worth it to use this treatment to control hot flashes.
Many post-menopausal women are surprised to learn that despite their wise refusal of estrogen replacement, they too are estrogen dominant, and this excess estrogen in fueling the growth of fibroids and fibroid cysts in the uterus and breasts.
So what do you do? It you are on oral contraception or any type of hormone contraception (i.e, DeproProvera, etc.), discontinue it and use an alternative that is hormone free. If you are currently on estrogen replacement, tell your doctor that you want to discontinue it. (Later you can explore bio-identical hormone replacement with a qualified practitioner.)
Avoid drugs that contain hormones such as cortisone and prednisone. Avoid hydrocortisone cream.
Avoid estrogen-rich foods such as: soy products (tofu, soy yogurt, soy milk, etc.), flax seeds and flax oil, canola oil (from the rapeseed) as well as all seeds, pods, and beans. Think of every seed, pod and bean as a mini uterus ready to reproduce and consequently high in estrogen. Yes, many of these foods are famous for their nutritional value. However, for the individual with fibroids these foods will fuel the growth of the tumors. Soy in particular is everywhere in processed food products.
Avoid the so-called "women's herbs or herbal formulas" as these contain herbs known to be high in phytoestrogens. This can be the ultimate in irony as many natural approaches to treating fibroids recommend herbs that will in the short term have a positive effect, but in the long term fuel the growth of fibroids due their high content of estrogens.
Avoid herbicides and pesticides. These chemicals are known as xenoestrogens since they mimic the activity of natural estrogen. Stay away from golf courses, commercial farms, pest control sprays, fuel and solvent fumes. Always soak fruits and vegetables in a sink of water and a tablespoon of 35% food grade hydrogen peroxide or a mixture of one half vinegar and water for 20 minutes, followed by a thorough rinse. Seek out my article on identifying estrogenic foods and herbs.
Metabolizing excessive estrogen is possible with a specific herbal formula developed by an oncologist with training in Chinese medicine (check below) and the use of a pure progesterone cream. Progesterone supplementation via a transdermal cream is an easy and powerful way to recover from the estrogen dominant condition that causes the growth of uterine fibroids, fibrocystic breasts and endometriosis. Progesterone quite simply puts excessive estrogen into balance. However, many formulas contain ingredients that are estrogenic in a misguided attempt to improve on pure progesterone. Read labels!
Estrogen is stored in body fat. Body fat is most often the result of a lower metabolism due to a sluggish and toxic liver. Excessive estrogens are contributing factors to weight gain. When the liver fails to eliminate estrogens efficiently, the excessive estrogens stimulate fat cell production from the lower abdominal area to the knees where estrogens are more concentrated.
Estrogens also bind to sodium which retains water and leads to weight gain. Chinese bitters can be helpful in detoxifying the liver and increasing the flow of bile. However, the fast track to a more functional liver can be realized by engaging in a series of liver-gallbladder flushes to remove the cholesterol pellets that clog the bilary ducts of the liver and impede the flow of bile. The easiest and most effective L-G flush uses an ozonated olive oil product, Olive Gold 03.
The best natural treatments for uterine fibroid tumors address the cause and the symptoms of the problem. Fibroid tumors develop due to excessive estrogen. The fibroid tumor is the symptom and product of the cause. Since fibroids are composed of fibrin, the same material of scar tissue, taking a professional strength systemic enzyme formula will dissolve the fibroid and remove this tissue altogether over time. When combined with the hormone balancing strategy this protocol offers the best natural approach to defeating uterine fibroids once and for all.
