There
are all kinds of ovarian cysts
medications such
as oral contraceptives and formulations that can deceive
the body into believing that conception has already
taken place. Unbelievable, yet true, this approach has
been tried time and again in many women. The working
principle behind this novel practice is based on the
fact that the female body releases the Progesterone
hormone in the second half of the menstrual cycle and
also through the gestation period to stop producing the
eggs. And when egg production is stopped, no follicles
grow. And if the follicles are not there, cysts cannot
grow either. When women are provided with natural progesterone
(a
bio-identical hormone similar to what the body releases
to halt ovulation), the body is tricked to believe that
it is pregnant, and the cysts stop growing in the
ovaries.
However
novel it may sound, if considered carefully, it is just
a variation of the same old practice of providing the
body with oral contraceptives or birth
control pills. But there is a slight
difference. While the pills contain chemically produced
hormones, the natural progesterone does not contain any
harmful chemicals.
Cures
For Ovarian Cysts - Early
Medications
Often
many doctors do not prescribe any medication in the hope
that the cyst will go away on is own. The medical
professional will just want to keep you under close
observation to find out if the size of the cyst is
reducing or not. So the doctor will need to examine your
pelvic region. But this is a dangerous approach because
suddenly the condition may worsen, and if it does, the
doctor would lose valuable time. Why invite unnecessary
complications, and wait for the emergency to strike you?
Take action when there's still
time.
The
cyst or cysts may not seem to be going away, and it may
be getting bigger in size. The physician will then be
urged to intervene. There are many who prescribe oral
contraceptives, but there are some other medications and
supplements too. But most of them are to control the
symptoms - and the main symptom is of course the
associated pain.
Treatment
For Ovarian Cysts - Ongoing
Medications
The physician could prescribe you
some drugs to control the level of hormones
in your body, because an imbalance of
hormone is a key reason for these cysts. There could be
some luteinising hormone-suppressing drugs, fertility
drugs, anti-androgen drugs and even antibiotics that
might be prescribed. In most cases however, a
combination of the above mentioned drugs are prescribed.
These medications however just try to treat the cyst and
not its cause. So, though the cyst might go away, but
since the cause remains, it often
returns.
But
there can be instances when the cyst might not still go
away even after you have been taking these drugs for a
while. In such cases, surgery is often recommended by
conventional medical practitioners. But remember,
surgery must always be the last
resort.
Herbal
Treatment For Ovarian Cyst
There are some herbal treatments
as well. But do remember that
herbal treatments may take anything between 2 to 6
months to give you results.
Herbs
like milk thistle and echinacea can control these cysts
in the ovary. Along with these herbs, you will also have
to change your diet. Foods such as vegetables and
fruits, legumes, garlic and while grains can also help
you get rid of the discomfort. You should try to avoid
or reduce your intake of alcohol, caffeine, eggs, red
meat, carbonated beverages, white sugar and refined or
processed foods.
There
are a few mineral and multivitamin supplements as well.
These supplements can provide you what your foods cannot
and can enhance your immunity, improve the liver
function, and protect you against abnormal cell growth.
And they can balance the level of hormone. So take
Vitamin B and C and zinc.
Herbal
remedies are just a part of the puzzle and not the
complete answer to the problem. They can offer some help
in providing relief from the symptoms, but since they
too do not treat the real causes, the cysts keep coming
back again and again. The only permanent cure can be
achieved by treating the root causes and not the
symptoms.
Holistic
Approach To Cure Your Ovarian
Cysts
Holistic
approach seems to be the best way to cure ovarian cysts
for several reasons. First of all, it is painless, and
secondly, it addresses at the root causes of the disease
(the cysts can be caused because of many factors), and
thirdly, it cures the disease and not the symptoms. In
other words, while conventional as well as the other
remedies treat the symptoms, holistic remedies reaches
deep within the body to identify all the root causes and
eradicates them. With the right medication, right diet
and right lifestyle, the patient can actually feel that
the problems are disappearing one by one. And this is
precisely why holistic remedies are so much better than
the other treatments. And these remedies are completely
safe too.
