uterine fibroids
Quote from lil chick on June 26, 2019, 2:37 pmA friend is having trouble with uterine fibroids and I think she may have some other vit A symptoms, though not a lot. Irregular cycles too.
Is this a job for the low A diet?
As with many of our problems here, doc's don't know what causes them.

"Vitamin A has also been investigated, and a dose-dependent relationship was observed between vitamin A and the formation of uterine fibroids [20]. Animal sources of vitamin A appear to be primarily responsible and not sources derived from fruit or vegetables [9]. The anti-oxidant properties of vitamins C and E have not shown any association however [9]."
