I had a 11cm fibroid, did not want a full hysterectomy as they said that was my only option, did my research, got onto vitamin D, intermittent fasting, green tea 3x day and two eggs every morning. This continued for two months straight with no sugar or bad food in sight, I changed my cooking oil, no processed food and my fibroid went right down. Side note, my stomach was almost flat within three weeks but I kept this routine going for two months. Hysterectomies are sky high for no legitimate reason and many women suffer throughout. They told me as I don’t have my periods they’ll just take both my ovaries out because I no longer need them😡. If god gave them to me, I NEED THEM.
Hair straighteners that alot of black women use were also found to coincide with increade in fibroids. There was or still is, multiple class action lawsuits out there on this issue. All the popular products nice& easy ect are being sued.
The information wasn't for us she was responding to the doctor I believe For the mere fact that the risk is hire for black women because of the vitamin D efficiency.. It's common Sense stop being so hateful@@Carma123
I got fibroids when I was 45. I knew they were coming because my mom and her 6 sisters had them. And my older sisters had them. Everyone got hysterectomies. I was determined that I was keeping everything that I was born with. When I got mine, I asked my doctor to just cut it out of my uterus. He said that it’s easier to remove the whole uterus. I said that I’d resolve mine with fasting. I told my doctor that fibroids feed off of sugar and that fasting and then cutting sugar would kill the fibroid. So I did. Every time I went back to get it check, which was Quarterly , the fibroid was smaller. One day it was gone. I reminded my doctor of how I resolved it and he just looked so irritated. 0:27
Omg please also let us know within how many periods of you starting to fast and and quitting sugar/carbs led you to finally not finding fibroids on your last USG! I too have started doing that so I’m really curious to know! It’s just been couple of months
Thanks for covering this Dr. Berg. I commented on one of your previous videos, I stated that "higher levels of vitamin D helped to shrink my fibroids." I'm a black woman and a registered nurse and I approve this video.
Please keep spreading the word. So many suffer needlessly because as near as I can figure, today's doctors are given 2 tools in their arsenal to "health": a prescription pad, and a scalpel. Totally ignoring everything else that can be beneficial and low cost.
I have fibroids and asked the gynae about vitamin D. They laughed it off but I learned a long time ago that the health system (even the NHS) don’t want us to be able to heal ourselves.
My doctor on the NHS quietly admitted that Vitamin D is connected to fibroids and then abruptly changed the subject letting me know she wouldn't be discussing it further. A lot of them know the truth but won't risk being fined (10K) and/or having their licence revoked.
@MMMC-z8y that should tell you, all you need to know. The system don't have humans well-being as a priority. They don't want healing, they just want to reduce the symptoms for profit.
They laugh at everything natural. I learned many decades ago tobuse them as a check and do my natural things, holistic things and use my herbs food roots etc to manage. Meanwhile, you go back to them and everything they say was an issue disappearing because it was treated with earth's love. I dont tell them anything unless they ask why it left. I've been taking Vitamin ,K more, spending more time out in sun (thank goodness I live in a subtropical area) and blessed to have sun many days in a year. Move if you need. Sunbath. As people from the Diaspora, or people who many have more melanin and appear brown as well need to get sun The sweeter thr berry, the more natural Vitamin d in sunshine.
3 months ago, I was in agony, bleeding for 1 month and a half at a time. I was 96 kilos, I was in severe pain 3 weeks out of 4. My dr said my only solution was a hysterectomy. I couldn’t face a surgery. I saw a video by dr Ken Berry. I started cold turkey on the carnivore diet, taking vitamin d every day and applying castor oil to my belly every day. 3 moths later, 12 kilos lighter, period regulated to 6 days a month, just a couple of pain days per month. I am a believer. I am going to eliminate these monsters completely without surgery. Ladies, take your health in your hands. You can do this.
6 years ago I was diagnosed with fibroids. I didn’t want surgery or to lose my uterus and I didn’t want to take medication for the rest of my life. I started eating fruits, vegetables and drinking more water for 90 days no coffee, tea, sugar, and dairy products. I also started walking every day. My fibroids have shrinkage and cured after the 90 days. I still can’t believe the doctor said I was going to be on medication long term for the pain and to have surgery to remove the fibroid. Even if you are having surgery just remember that you are not alone on this journey!!
Thank God for your wisdom. I was diagnosed with a 10 cm fibroid and low iron. The doctor made it sound like surgery was the only option and I needed to do it fast but I read the horror stories of the surgery and how the fibroids came back in many cases. I started taking 2000 IUs daily based off another of your videos recommending vitamin D may be the issue and it didn't even put a dent in my problem. I couldn't even wear pants due to the pain and sensitivity. Finally I started bleeding for months straight! I watched more of your videos and realized 2K IU wasn't enough. I started taking more and landed on 40K daily and the bleeding stopped🎉. I could wear pants again and the bulge in my abdomen has visibly reduced! You are out here saving lives! THANK YOU
May I know how do you take 40K IU? Most drops are 1K so u take 40 drops? How about Vit D shot, would that be better absorb? Would love to shrink my 11 cm fibroid and avoid that terrifying surgery
@@jkwan7 I take 'trace minerals' brand vit D with K2. It's 5,000 IUs per 4 drops so i think 32 drops a day would be pretty easy especially if you divided it into 2 or 3 times a day.
My Dear, I have 3 uterine fibroids. Starting today I’ll increase my intake of vitamin D to 50000 iu/day. I’ll keep you posted, I have an ultrasound appointment scheduled in December. Thanks Dr Berg!
Don't miss his other videos, though, stating you need to balance it with K-2 and Magnesium, otherwise, such amount can result to calcification in your arteries, which you don't want.
We need more people like this telling us truth! Just finished reading The 23 Former Doctor Truths by Lauren Clark. Its fascinating what they hide from society.
Hi, to all women out there, drink this everyday and it will help with inflammatory. Ginger, galangal, lemon grass, tumeric. Blend and boil it, drink every day. A friend of my sister had fibroid and schedule for surgery in 1 month. She drink this for that one month till the day she went for surgery. Miraculously that fibroid nowhere to be found and went home 😊 true story. So now im drinking this everyday too because i have many small lumps in my breast.
I am a black mental health therapist and i have been preaching to my black women clients for years about ensuring that they are having vitamin d and iron levels checked regularly. Many of my clients experience endometriosis, PCOS, diabetes HBP and also depression and anxiety. I noticed anecdotally when clients vitamin d levels were regulated that moods improved. You always give so much good information and it deepens my passion to encourage clients to advocate for their complete wellness. ❤❤❤
I am retired LCSW who has been doing Organic Innovative medicine especially with kids (under age24).. I have Yt channel and am learning editing to get better.
Same Sistren!!!! As well as eating food. Real food. Cut processed canned bagged boxed foods as much as possible. Get right with WATER, get magnesium. Walk outside. Don't be terrified of the sun like they tried to take us so we would be sick mentally and physically. Some listen some it takes time and they don't. Even with proof
Was diagnosed with fibroids and started taking soil clods mined in a certain part of kenya, together with garlic, ginger,turmeric, black pepper and oregano concoction and now I feel much better. Best of all leaky gut cured. I also do intermittent fasting and lot's of praying.
I went to obgyn and I told the doctor and the intern medical student my issue the indian doctor/student whispered get vitamin d. My issue aligns with this video
Dr Berg notes Fibroids decrease in size after menopause, yet pregnancy, exposure to HRT, and birth control pills can cause fibroids to enlarge. Obesity, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and PCOS also increase the risk of fibroids. Black women have a 3 to 9 times higher risk of developing fibroids. Estrogen is the primary driver of fibroids and endometriosis. A fibroid is a growth in the uterus, but it differs from uterine tissue in several ways. Fibroids are very sensitive to estrogen and have increased estrogen receptors, more of the enzyme aromatase, less oxygen than the uterus, and more inflammation. Many health problems and risk factors associated with fibroids are related to low vitamin D. Vitamin D has incredible properties that may help inhibit the growth of fibroids. There is also a vast amount of anecdotal evidence in support of using vitamin D to shrink fibroids. Be sure to take vitamin D with the cofactors magnesium and vitamin K2. Thank you Dr Berg! 😺👍
@@Drberg God bless you! Can you do a video on getting rid of a cycst. Particularly a 'simple cycst' diagnosis on a kidney please and thank you. I watch your videos daily!!
I currently have that and PCOS along with hypothyroidism. Don’t take the meds the doctors tell you to take. Follow the natural path and stay away from sodas, junk food, etc.
@Texasbohemian88, please research the importance of iodine with PCOS. It also helps with hypothyroidism. So many times our bodies are crying out for more minerals and vitamins and doctors only prescribe drugs. Good that you are healing naturally!
Yes stay away from soda and junk food. I limit sugar as much as I can. I’m 43, I feel good. I was battling vitamin D deficiency in my 20s and 30s and it was horrible! I make sure to take my supplements and get sun as much as I can without getting any sunburn. I’m part Irish so 30 minutes to an hour daily is enough for me.
There are educated doctors who know more than the garbage that’s pushed. They are the minority of doctors, but they do exist. Many are honestly watching Dr. Berg because he is an expert in doing research and offering alternatives for the rare patient that wants more than side effect filled surgeries or pills. .
My mom (48) has fibroids and I was just telling her last night how I would do some extra research for her, to help her find anything to shrink the fibroids. We're willing to try everything healthy before surgery being the ultimate last resort. Then you drop this gem today. Thank you so much, Dr. Berg. Your work is life-changing.
I'm also 48 and used to have hormone problems. At 40 I changed my diet and now have no menstrual cramps after dealing with them for years and my doctor had said I might have adenomyosis, but the symptoms resolved on their own. I am the only woman my age I know with a normal period still and most women my age I know have had hysterectomies. I do the Nutritarian diet. It took about 6 months to really start noticing the hormone changes, so it doesn't happen right away. I think most people quit before seeing changes. I am truly grateful to feel good every day. Please pass this info on to your mom if you think it would help her. There is also a good book called Your Body in Balance by Neal Barnard that talks about these issues.
@@vanitagomes3794 Yes it is basically vegan, but whole foods based, though I do eat a bit of meat and dairy once in awhile. There are tons of videos here on YT about the diet by Dr. Joel Fuhrman. I am the only person I know who does the diet, and it was very hard at first and seemed weird, but now I enjoy it and I feel amazing because it fixed my health problems.
I could cry after listening to this. Back in 2019 I ended up having a hysterectomy after the discovery of a fibroid the size of a cantaloupe melon growing in my uterus. It went undetected for years as I was very silm/athletic in build due to all the crossfit, thai boxing, yoga and running that I did. For many years I just thought I had a prolapsed bladder (hence lots of strength exercises) or I was suffering with early peri-menopause. After the operation my former symptoms were gone however they had been exchanged with a set of new problems. If I knew very high doses of vitamin D had been my saviour, then I would have never had those operation. Since following Dr Eric Berg I take high doses of vitamin D and I'm pleased to say I'm in pretty good health.
I read a book by Jawanza Kunjufu 40 years ago about African-American women getting fibroids. His book said it was due to dairy. I have found that true for me and the women in my family. My period was terrible also; now I know it was from the fibroids. The fibroids disappeared when I stopped eating dairy, but I recently started eating it again on a Carnivore diet. Well, the fibroids came back. I am letting the dairy go because I can actually feel them growing, and now it is affecting me to be able to control my urination when I wake up in the morning. I must run to the restroom. It's time to let the dairy go. I take about 10K IU of vitamin D3 a day because of a muscle disease I had, so I am used to taking vitamin D3 like this. When I get my blood test done at the doctor, they always say wow, your vitamin D is high. Thanks for your video, I follow you all the time. Thanks for such great information. I also take many of your supplements.
🧡💛🧡 I read this same book. I have never met anyone who has read this. Even raw dairy was an issue for me...even butter. I cannot remember the title to this book, but it mentioned dairy as the main culprit. May God Bless your beautiful soul dear 🙏.
10K units is the equivalent of 15 minutes of sun exposure. I might try upping it to 20K with the cofactors, and see if your dairy intolerance goes away.
@@abarnes8718not necessarily as long as the meat is not from animals injected with growth hormones and antibiotics. I eat guinea fowl, rabbit, pheasant and organic chicken, small fish like sardines and mackerel (to avoid high levels of mercury), wild caught salmon is great, apple cider vinegar with the mother, mixed peppercorns, black rice, spinach and broccoli and supplements especially vitamin D3 8000 ui, magnesium, red clover, zinc, and omega 3, and the fibroids are shrinking.
Diagnosed with fibroids in 2019. Watched my Mom grow a fibroid into what looked like a 7lb pregnant belly. She chose surgery and they ended up doing a complete hysterectomy. She became depressed after surgery. Said she would not have chosen to have hysterectomy knowing what it feels like after. The monthly started getting worse and worse for me. My normally flat stomach began to grow. I knew I had to change things or I would end up like my mom. Gave up dairy. Started taking vitamin d3 and experienced huge changes in a few months. I eat low sugar but still need to work on eliminating that and carbs from diet. Baby steps. But so thankful for this information! I will be upping my dosage of D3.
I have been chronic low on Vitamin D my whole life and I have had high estrogen and increasing fibroids proliferating in my 30s and now 40s. This makes so much sense. Thank you!
I’m in the same situation. I’m 43 and just find out my uterine line is getting thicker because over estrogen production which could eb dangerous . Ultrasounds are good to detect this issues
Same ive had a fibriod grow around the age 40 now 46 the size of a cherry probably growing , thick edometrial lining , high estrogen levels , heavy periods now anemic signs insulin levels are probably bit high , will b trying vitamin D and improving estrogen dominance
Another succes story here! 5 years ago I was diagnosed with uterine fibroid. It was 3cm big and they said its nothing and just a “cosmetic” thing. I had a lot of stress mainly from work back then and the fibroid started to grow rapidly - from 3cm to almost 9cm and I was told Id never have kids. First thing I did was reduce stress and got out for long walks outside to catch some sun. Fibroid decreased on size and I got pregnant :). Fast forward when I got pregnant again I took lots of vitamin D mainly for bones and healthy baby development. After my second pregnancy the fibroid was still there with the size of 15mm almost invisible on the ultrasound :). After watching Dr. Bergs videos about vitamin D I upped my dosage to 10 000. Going for an ultrasound in 1-2months Ill do an update.
10,000 IU D3 a day? With how much K2? Have you checked your D levels? I was told this is too much but now this vid has me curious. So glad ur doing better!
Answered prayer! I had a blood transfusion on Friday because of having a menstrual cycle that the doctors attribute to fibroids. They also suggested a hysterectomy, but although I'm 44, I still want the option to have more children. I was starting to get sad about the news and have increased my research. Thank you for sharing your findings for those who want and need to implement into our lives. Many blessings to you! I've ordered your vitamin D supplements.
Ask the doctor to prescribe tranexamic acid during your period to slow down your bleeding. I am 44, have fibroids and I have horrible bleeding during my period. I was finally prescribed tranexamic acid and I see a 50% less bleeding during my periods. The doctor wants to do a hysterectomy but I really don't want to do that. I pray that I get the fibroids reduced the natural way.
Sending you hug sweetie! I had a blood transfusion at 41 a month ago! I was so scared! I had it due to a small fibroid from heavy bleeding. I have cutting sugar and increasing vitamin D. *Hugs*
@@mcmc8556CAREFUL!! 😮 *Tranexamic acid* only reduce the amount of bleeding temporarily, to the cost of kidney problems and very reduced vision with the risk of blindness. I had to stop it after 6 months of very small reduction on my still very heavy bleeding, my kidneys and my eyes were suffering already. Don't use or recommend such toxic chemical. Better is to use IODINE drops from kelp + 0 carb diet + 0 dairy + 0 estrogenic foods: soy, flax & sesame seeds. And now + vitamin D. My fibroids reduced greatly. For the bleeding, look for a natural sourced PROGESTERONE cream or drops for the skin (good quality, not fake like many). I recommend the *expert in hormones Dr Michelle Sands from Glow Natural Wellness* Hope it helps 🙏🏻

Before going through the video, I honestly teared up seeing this! My Dr wanted to convince me to have the hysterectomy but I refused instead I went through am embolization since I had a huge fibroids effecting my lifestyle. Today was my appointment with him and he was mad that I didn’t go through the surgery telling me that the shrinking is very slow and I came home sad don’t know what honestly! But I knew that I can heal naturally. I just opened my RUclips and this video popped in! Thank you Dr berg❤
I’m crying!!! That pain is the worst combined with heavy bleeding!! Dr. Berg, it works and will work!! So thankful for your knowledge! Peace @ Blessings to you! ❤
These videos make my blood boil. Can’t believe I trusted drs and medicine for so long. I have so many problems and watching your videos gives me hope. I pray that God keeps you safe. Thank you for your honesty and care ✨
Omg, I wished that you were around in 2004 when I did a partial hysterectomy and hearing that I didn’t have to breaks my heart. I sent your video to my daughter who has fibroids. Thank you Dr Berg for giving us valuable info for our health.
Appreciate this video. 🙂 👍🏽👏🏽 My mom got diagnosed with fibroids in her late 30s and she lived with fibroids for many years since. She refused to get any surgery done to treat it. She does not believe in having the uterus removed and she was afraid of surgery anyway. She just decided to go the natural health route of dealing with it (health supplements). She’s 65 and recently hit menopause. Fibroids haven’t been an issue for her these days.
I had two or more large fibroids when I became pregnant which made my pregnancy more dangerous, especially my baby. Eight months after birth they were removed and 1.5 years later could get pregnant again, but had too much pain. Thank God he saved my baby’s life. I wish I would have had Dr. Berg to educate me 25 years ago. God bless you!!!🙏🙏🙏
Normally, if a woman has a fibroid, they may have 1 or 2, maybe up to about 6. These may be able to be surgically removed. Unfortunately, I had too many to count. My stomach was protruding like a 5 month pregnant lady. The fibroid and the removal surgery were too risky, I could bleed out, they would scar the uterus preventing a successful pregnancy and they would likely grow back. I had to have an abdominal hysterectomy and couldn't have kids. In Australia at the time (I don't know if it has changed), you couldn't adopt after 35, I was 37 and surrogacy is illegal unless someone offers and doesn't accept a payment. As Australia has the highest rate of skin cancer in the world, I always stayed out of the sun. I had all that free Vitamin D at my finger tips. I wish I had known this information then. However, thank you Dr Berg for getting this information out and helping people... not be like me.
Sadly, there was and still is a lot of disinformation about the role of Vit D in healthcare. Docs like Dr. Berg are treated as pariahs by the establishment because they don’t follow the typical managed care flow sheets for “proper care” that brings in the most 💰& keeps patients in the waiting room. We can be thankful for the Covid debacle for one thing: opening iu eyes to the massive scams in (USA) healthcare and government control of the food supply that haven’t resulted in a healthier population.
I haven't been able to have children either. I had one extremely healthy baby. Then I couldn't get pregnant anymore after I had been on birth control for a year or two. Had been trying for over 3 years. But I had 4 shots and was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition afterwards (rare side effects "very rare") vein disease, seizures, ECT. Maybe it is best these days...? I mean it's not like the food and air quality gets better every year for the children living here. Or maybe it does, don't want my comments removed.
It's a horrible surgery please check out HERS Foundation Nora Coffey - AND we have to organize to stop this - Informed Consent hysterectomy laws - AND ALL of the adverse effects
14 years! Very active in sports No alcohol Do no smoke Balance meals Not overweight Had fibroids Saw many consultants, no one gave a rat's butt! Every month for 15 years flooding during periods 😢 Became a recluse Hair gone, balding A very confident person driven to this level. I am 54 going 55 next year. Period stopped 5 months ago.
I had a myomectomy surgery when I was 28 to remove my fibroids because of my heavy periods and I was unable to get pregnant. After the surgery I was able to have 2 children. Fibroids came back when I was in my mid forties and had another less invasive surgery to remove the fibroids called an embolization surgery. But that surgery took me straight into menopause……I am now 65 and happy that period in my life is behind me!
I'm 46, and I just had a partial hysterectomy back in July. I still have my ovaries. I also had a myomectomy at 28. I never wanted kids, though. I am grateful to never have a period again.
Wish I'd known about this in 1999, when I was told had two huge fibroids 'the size of grapefruits'. I was given a full hysterectomy, where everything was taken away, and I haemorrhaged during the operation. I had to be given several litres of blood, and almost died. Miraculously, I suffered no ill effects afterwards, which seemed to cause some amazement in the hospital, but it was a very close call. I had to be tested for AIDS later, as some of the blood had not been checked before use. Lucky again. Pay attention to Dr Berg, ladies!
I found it concerning, when they wanted to do estrogen therapy for menopause. (Years ago, it was popular.) I refused it, and now I’m very glad I did. God bless. And Thank you again Dr. Berg!
They still do. So many menopause Facebook groups that applaud using hrt. Also menopause doctors pushing this. So wrong many people grab HRT as a quick band aid but not many women trying to change their lifestyle, diet and supplements. So many complain months after taking HRT that their symptoms return. They return cause they never changed anything in their life
Experiencing a gradual decline of your reproductive system over a period of 10 years (if you're lucky) until it completely breaks down is rubbish! Please excuse my moods and thanks for the Vit D tip 😊
@@DrbergSir plzzz help me i hv dignosed with fibroids ....as big as 8 month pregnant even i can feel and move it with my hands from outside like fetus ..no heavy bleeding but ofcourse pain in first two days of period with fever no other symptom is foud i just come across your videos and started taking vitamin d3 10000iu per day i feel energy and a power in my body but still i want to consult u about my fibroids ...as my local doctors told me the hystrectomy is the only solution i dont want to go for hytrectomy what should i do to shrink my fibroids
This doctor is literally a gem. I had so many fibroids, which resulted heavy and nearly unbearable periods. I tried changing my diet but didn't see too much change. Eventually I got a myomectomy. A year later they found some small fibroids going back . I felt pretty defeated. Of course I was young and dumb and didn't I needed to take vitamins . I unfortunately had 2 failed pregnancy and met a doctor that suggested vitiamonds. I am seeing a change. And I will start doing more research on vitamin D. Thanks Dr. Berg .... What you are doing for your viewers is wonderful ❤ Berge
The vitamin D works before knew about this video. My doctor had prescribed me 50,000 I use a vitaminD but it wasn’t for fibroids. It was because my vitamin D was low but then I noticed that my stomach wasn’t looking like I was five months pregnant anymore so I changed my diet and started knowing that it was the vitamin D that was assisting with the.fibroids, sometimes I think my doctor just knew, but couldn’t tell me. and when I told him I had changed my eating habits and started taking smoothies he was so excited and told me keep it up and when I would come back and check my fibroid and fibroids shrink and my thyroid levels were balanced. Started eating brown rice and white rice and switched to quinoa. Chicken cutlet, add all the vegetables and stirfry them in chicken broth instead of oil. • Spinach • Onion • Green bell pepper • Carrots • Yellow bell pepper • Red bell pepper • Orange bell pepper • Green squash (zucchini) • Yellow squash • Beets • Broccoli • Garlic • Turmeric • Ginger • Cooked quinoa • Chicken broth (for cooking) • Iodized salt • Black pepper • Ground flaxseeds (optional as a topping)
Thanks 🙏 making this video. I am a black British woman. I’ve had fibroids the last seven years. At age 40 I was taken to hospital being severely anaemic. They found a large amount of fibroids and I’d had heavy bleeding. It’s now changed since perimenopause
Vegans are one of the most high risk groups for vit D deficiency. My friend is vegan and struggles with fibroids. Im glad yours went away, but still it is anecdotal.
Up to 80% of women develop fibroids by age 40. The video explores the connection between vitamin D deficiency and fibroids, discussing how vitamin D may help shrink fibroids naturally and alleviate symptoms. It covers fibroid causes, characteristics, and potential benefits of vitamin D supplementation.
@Drberg Thank you so much for this video!! Can you share a little more about endometriosis and fertility? Since changing my lifestyle to carnivore and high fat, my body has been in recovery mode for a year and half..... hair is healthy, less tinging in my feet, less inflammation and better sleep. I take magnesium glycinate, k2, 15,000iu of D3 omega 3,B1 and probiotic. Again, thank you for telling the truth!
Hi Dr Berg when I was diagnosed with fibroids the gynaecologist I was sent to was immediately lining up the surgery date for hysterectomy. I said NO and he got quite angry with me . Dinosaur 🦕 I then went to my naturopath and he recommended I3C (cruciferous veg ) to balance my hormones. I took it for a year and completely forgot about my fibroids. I went back to the GP and got another ultrasound. The fibroids had disappeared!!! I told her what I was taking and she said that they would have shrunk on their own 🤦♀️So I asked her WHY would they remove my uterus then !?!?! Absolutely crazy making . Women are being ripped off by ignorant doctors. I continued taking I3C for decades and I sailed through menopause without symptoms or discomfort!! I later learned about high dosage Vitamin D3 so I also took that in small dosages. Since meeting you I have slowly upped my D to about 40,000 and I’ve added in K2, magnesium, zinc and copper . I’ve always taken selenium. 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
Goes deeper than this. No sugars, wheat or dairy, meditation and no stress as well as staying away from plastics and bpa and eating clean organic and lots of green veggies :) as well as keeping ph balanced for inflammation :) heal heal heal
i do all that, no sugar, no dairy, no gluten, only organic food and cosmetics since 10 years already, never took any hormonal pills or chemical contraception, adding d-vitamin, b-komplex, selenium, zinc, magnesium, drink green tea, eat cbd, vitex berry..all.. but.. they keep growing.... keep away from plastic bpa, have glass food storage containers, mostly wear cotton (underwear always 100% organic cotton), but of course sometimes trousers and shirts and sweaters have poliester in them.. but it is nearly to impossible to have no plastic near or on you, or touching your food at least at some point (even organic vegetables are wrapped in plastic in the grocery stores).
I live a block away from a golf course and we have a large amount of deer in the neighborhood. Almost all of the deer have large growths on them. I told the Colorado parks and wildlife biologist about it and she completely passed it off. I've never seen anything like it anywhere else. They use so many pesticides and herbacides, not only on the golf course but on all the surrounding home's lawns and landscaping, it's like they're waging chemical warfare over there.
It’s true, and I can testify to this. I have three fibroids that were detected during my pregnancy (due to high estrogen levels). Since then, I’ve been getting annual ultrasounds, and to my surprise, my fibroids have actually decreased in size and haven’t grown at all since I started taking 10,000 IU of D3 combined with K2. This is definitely not a coincidence, as those fibroids had been growing for years, but now they’re shrinking. I can prove this 100% with my test results.
Im a redhead and also allergic to dairy. So naturally, minimal sun exposure or proper supplementation led to massive fibroids despite being at an appropriate weight, never became pregnant, and did not have hypertension. Still needed to have a TAH. Wish i knew this two years ago.
Hands down the best video on this topic. Thanks Dr Berg! As a black woman, I also think our other challenge is that we eat way too many carbs. Regardless of nationality, I have noticed carb consumption among fellow black people is really high. I recently switched to Keto thanks to your videos.
I’ve just been diagnosed with Adenomyosis and Fibroids. After suffering for 10 years, and 5 OBGYN’s later, my OB now, recently made this diagnosis. I have a hysterectomy scheduled for next month. Has been a long journey that left me both physically and emotionally exhausted, hopefully more research continues and more women can avoid this suffering as I have endured.
I was told I have 2 fibroids and I would need a hysterectomy. I said no maam because it was not giving me any issues. I got on top of my vitamins and sleep and my fibroid shrunk. They were shook because I didn’t take that medication they wanted to give me or move forward with a hysterectomy. Thank you for this information Dr. Berg.
I had a 10 cm fibroid and had to have a myomectomy a while back. Another one ended up growing back and I was extremely disappointed. Doctors didn’t have any explanation. I refused to accept that “it just happens” so I did extensive research and learned all about how and why they show up. I even learned which herbs to take and what type of diet to have to shrink them. It’s still there but I rarely feel it. I only notice it when I start slacking off on my healthy lifestyle. Beet juice, fasting and herbs works wonders btw.
Black face general leaves alleviated my fibroids. Boiled a few leaves in water and drink for a few weeks. Go Google to find out more. I didn't need surgery after that.
Its so crazy watching this video i just took off from work today because of my fibriod pain I am a black woman and i am 25 i got diagnosed with pcos &endometriosis 2 years ago i have always had horrible periods and cramps and thought it was normal and this was never properly explained to me until now thank you ❤
Walk, breath, support liver (reduce sugar and stress, move after eating, reduce eating frequently, don't sleep after eating), and get some sun/light to relax and vitamin d.
There’s a video here on RUclips “High Level Conversation “ interview with 19 Keys and a black young lady who suffered with fibroids and extreme period pain until she detoxed by changing her diet. She went whole food vegan. She mentioned that when she slipped up and went back to her old ways of eating with all the processed foods that she would experience fibroid growth and extreme period pain again. So she learned to stay whole food vegan. I also used to experience extreme discomfort with my period in my teen years and early 20s until I started taking Red Raspberry Leaf tea/supplement and a good women’s multivitamin. Wish you the best ❤
Sending hugs sweetie!!! I’m 41 and discovered my first fibroid at 37 years old. I can’t go to work the first day of my Period due to the pain and heavy bleeding!! Wishing you the best! ❤
Fibroids are a somatic representation of "Nursing a hurt from a partner. A blow to the feminine ego." Mantra: "I release the pattern in me that attracted this experience. I create only good in my life." - Louis Hay, Heal Your Body, pg 34
Thank you for covering this topic. It's not covered enough or talked about. If 80% of women end up with these, it should be talked about EARLY as a requirement in high school or college or more on the news. To learn more about 'diet matters'. I almost died from mine (hemorrhaging) and didn't even know what they were. Anyway tried taking vit d3 but started getting constipation and quit. Is there anyway around this? One of my fibroids shrunk from 12cm to 8cm in 9mos. and all of them said they hardly ever shrink and we need to take out your uterus. All's i've done so far is cut out alcohol and caffeine and 4 1/2 mos. acupuncture. Even after the last ultra sound, and telling doctor one has shrunk he just ignored me. He still wants a hysterectomy. Now, would like to try what your saying. Ladies don't listen to doctors if they say they do not shrink, because if your making efforts I'm proof they DO. Heard turminic helps as well. I Cut out soy as well and fried foods. TY Doctor.
At 44 and already been through surgery to remove a 6cm fibroid two years ago, I was diagnosed with two new ones and I am not prepared to go through that again. Thank you for the information.
Got diagnosed with multiple fibroids last Friday with options suggested from do nothing and deal to a hysterectomy. I spent the weekend going down the rabbit hole of research since I truly don’t have the time or financial resources for surgery without a great deal if time to prepare. In the meantime I decided to look for natural ways. So grateful your videos popped up.
Wonderful information Doctor.....will this help cysts (PCOS) too...I don't know what we would do without u ....you are an angel to me... Thankyou again ❤
I’ve been diagnosed with Fibroids. I have one that is nagging pain on my left side. I started taking 40-50,000 every two weeks and the pain is subsiding!! It does work!
If you are taking vitamin D, make sure you are also supplementing potassium. My potassium levels dropped significantly, and caused major health pfoblems.
I'm now 39 years i have 3 fibroid as said bu my doctor when i was 36 and trying to conceive. I have a daughter but for about 6years now is difficult for me to have another baby. I now understand cuz I'm black skin and bearly go out in the sun Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤
Thank you Doc this video is going to save a lot of women who do not want to be mutilated off their organs. Thank you for being such an amazing doctor 🙏
I wish I'd known this 15 years ago. I developed a small fibroid and had an op which didn't resolve the pain and vile periods. I was working all hours and travelling 4 times a month long haul. As a black woman, living in UK, I must have been in significant negative D3. Thank you Dr Berg.
Thank you for this and i will start taking vitamin D. I'm a 34 year old Jamaican lady and have fibroids as long as I can remember. I also have two friends my age group that also have it. My Doctors says no one knows what causes it but dairy helps increase it. I got a list of what to stop eating, after the list all that seems to be left is grass.
In the late 70s I went to very old Naturopath who told me this about OVARIAN CYSTS: if you cease the use of caffeine including chocolate FROM the day you ovulate TO the day you start menstruating YOU WILL NEVER GET A CYST AGAIN. He then made kind of a funny point, he asked "have you ever heard of a man having cysts?😅 Anyway he went on to tell the reason why, he said "ESTROGEN + CAFFEINE = CYSTS, that when you add caffeine to estrogen rich time between ovulation and 1st day of menstruation, it is the only time your body will make an ovarian cyst. 🎉
I have requested Dr. Berg for an in depth video on Endometriosis. And now here it is ☺️ Thank you so much for providing such hands on virtual learning and remedies to us.
I am 64 and had a hysterectomy in 2010 due to fibroids. Long story short doctor said he had never seen so many or so many large fibroids. My periods were so heavy for so long that my iron was at a 2 and had to be raised before surgery. Sure wish I knew this 30 years ago! I wonder if any doctors are telling young women this information. I have also struggled with raising my vitamin d levels.
I had a myomectomy done in 1987. I was 34 years old. The doctor wanted me to have a hysterectomy. I was in tears and protested, so I had the myomectomy done. Went to the doctor recently. I am now 73 and was told I had 4 that are now benign. My 30 yr old just found out she has fibroid. This information came in just in time. Thank you Doctor.
This is GREAT to know!! Roughly 5 years ago, I had an awful pain and visit to the ER where they wanted to do surgery. I started doing Castor Oil packs with a heating pad, and I haven't had the pain ever again. Whenever I feel any pain coming on, I'll do a castor oil pack, and it wipes out the pain. I didn't know about the Vitamin D though - I'll definitely work harder to keep it up in my regimen. Thanks Dr Berg!!
My wife has suffered with Endometriosis for decades, and now takes 10000IU Vit D3 with K2 every day. Maybe she should increase it short term and see if there are any improvements for her. I have sent her this video. Thank you 😊
Prolonged stress can cause fibroids as well. If you look at fibriods on a cellular level, the oxidative stress and disfunctional autophagy functions. The best research looks at fibroids on a cellular level.
Very interesting. I've been having some issues with perimenopause, and my doctor placed me on some hormones, and the medicine says, " Avoid direct sunlight." I am a Black woman. I always am suspicious anytime meds say stay out of direct sunlight. I will not continue this medicine after this month. Thank you, Dr. Berg.
sry to say this but honestly your dr sound kind a suspicious I use to work as hairdresser and 1 of my customer was dr and he told if I have any doubt go to see another dr to get 2nd opinion for my safety, and actually I did when I had a stress fracture bone 1dr recommend surgery right away but 2nd dr just put me on the boot for couple months and healed back
2yrs ago. I was 46 years old when I desperately needed a hysterectomy. I had one large 5 cm fibroid but the rest of my uterus was completely compacted with them. My uterus was the size of a grapefruit and hard like a rock. My last 3 cycles were a murder scene, insanely scary and my last 2 cycles my cervix wouldn't open properly, so I was in constant contractions but I eventually passed a blood clot the size of a grapefruit and then lost 600 mL of blood in 2 minutes. They (ER) gave me IV medication to slow down the bleeding and gave me fluids and 2 weeks later I was rushed in for a hysterectomy before my next cycle. The only thing I kept was my ovaries. For 4 years I was losing so much blood I was always anemic and always getting iron infusions. I always took all of my vitamins especially D3. But it didn't help at all. I am just shy of 49 years old now and very close to menopause. But I couldn't wait and my OBGYN didn't want to wait because it was too dangerous.
Thank you so much for addressing this. I had an embolization to block the flow of blood to it. Some did shrink and pass but grew back. I wanted a partial hysterectomy but the didn’t want to give it to me while in Texas. Since they are prolife and because of my age, saying 8 might change my mind since I’m still young. I lost my mom very young so we never had this discussion at 14 and she was 39 when she passed. I need help too because I have PCOS. Thank you for addressing this. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I believed this. I mentioned in the comment section about your cod liver oil video that my breastfeeding wife took cod liver supplement. Now we add d3 10,000 to 20,000 iu with magnesium glycinate every night. We really saw significant changes. My wife got better mood no aches and pain and sleep very well even though she keeps breastfeeding our child at dawn. We owe our health to you Dr. Berg. Ive learned many things from you since 2018. Please continue to bring us good health. We keep continued supporting you thru sharing. ❤️ .
Thank you for sharing this valuable information! A hysterectomy was the first course of action my doctor presented to me. When I quickly declined, he then recommended another medical procedure, and finally (and sarcastically) offered a third option of “doing nothing”. I went home and began doing my own research. I am currently choosing a natural route of managing my fibroids. I’ve just ordered the book you’ve recommended. Thanks again Dr.Berg!
So there is a video like this, Oh my GOD. I don't want to dwell on the regret of not seeing it before now... Yes! this was the best time to come across it, THANK YOU DOCTOR.
I wish I had this information when I had the excessive periods of my youth. At least I had no surgery for the fibroid which disappeared after menopause set in. I hope young women are listening.
Thank you Dr., Berg! I started on liquid iodine drops, and NAC, and taking a high quality liquid vitamin, as well as laying out in the Arizona sun for roughly 20 minutes several times a week, and much of my female issues have resolved.
I suffered from fibroids in my utertus and breasts for 10 years. I had the uterine ablation. Did it work? Nope. I continued with my monthly cycle with heavy flow for 2 more years. I gave up my doc and went online. I purchased a product nattokinase from Europe at the time that I remember paying 80 bucks for. Yikes I never told my husband. All I can say is that when the flow was really going I took the nattokinase in 20 min flow slowed. 2 cycles stopped the problem altogether and I never suffered again. I have pcos too. I am 58 now and thru menopause. I did this 16 yrs ago.
It's probably the vitamin K2 in fermented soya that helped you, as vitamin K2 is anti-coagulant. On the other hand, I'm not sure that soya is advisable in cases of uterine fibroids because soya contains too many phytoestrogens.
@sossodelune7872 all I know is that they went away, my health got better finally finally free of the problem. The only thing I took was nattokinase which is known I. Europe to discover fibroids.
I developed a fibroid sometime between age 43 and 47. I started taking progesterone during that time because my endocrinologist saw my progesterone was low. Since then, I have found out I have Vitamin D resistance and I'm now taking 20,000 IU per day (with K2) and have done this for 6 months. My blood level for Vit D is 130. I'm not obese at all. I'm now 49 and had the fibroid checked with an ultrasound. I'm not sure if it shrank but my doctor isn't concerned. I'm seeing a new doctor and am asking them to compare the size over time because I'm curious. Thank you, Dr. Berg ❤ and hello from Floyd, Va
@@Emmanuellaphotosgallery yes, I'm still taking progesterone. I'm in perimenopause now (at 49) and was having trouble with the symptoms of hot flashes and insomnia. I'm taking a small dose of estrogen now, also, which has completely eliminated the symptoms, so I want to watch my fibroid closely since I'm on HRT. My doctor has even prescribed testosterone cream, which I took for a while. She said testosterone has benefits for women as long as you don't start seeing signs of too much (like hair darkening.)
@KMx108 please follow up with those ultra sound results. Mine shrank years ago and then grew back larger. I plan to try Vin d3/k2/magnesium plus progesterone.
So sad we didn't know about this in the late 90's. I had a Grapefruit size fibroid removed and ended up with a total hysterectomy (after a partial) by the age of 31! To think it could have been different is mind blowing
I had a 11cm fibroid, did not want a full hysterectomy as they said that was my only option, did my research, got onto vitamin D, intermittent fasting, green tea 3x day and two eggs every morning. This continued for two months straight with no sugar or bad food in sight, I changed my cooking oil, no processed food and my fibroid went right down.
Side note, my stomach was almost flat within three weeks but I kept this routine going for two months.
Hysterectomies are sky high for no legitimate reason and many women suffer throughout. They told me as I don’t have my periods they’ll just take both my ovaries out because I no longer need them😡. If god gave them to me, I NEED THEM.
Thank you for the supplement tips and protocol. I will do the same.

Well done for standing ur ground and trusting ur Intuition . Tjere is no organ in our body we don’t need !
Wow amazing testimony.. thanks for sharing ❤
As a black woman this video blessed me with great education and was very timely after a recent fibroid diagnosis . Thank you Dr Berg!!!
Good luck with the treatment
Hair straighteners that alot of black women use were also found to coincide with increade in fibroids. There was or still is, multiple class action lawsuits out there on this issue. All the popular products nice& easy ect are being sued.
Why do we need to know your race?
🌹May GOD BLESS YOU on your health journey dear 🙏🌹
The information wasn't for us she was responding to the doctor I believe
For the mere fact that the risk is hire for black women because of the vitamin D efficiency..
It's common Sense stop being so hateful@@Carma123
I got fibroids when I was 45. I knew they were coming because my mom and her 6 sisters had them. And my older sisters had them. Everyone got hysterectomies. I was determined that I was keeping everything that I was born with. When I got mine, I asked my doctor to just cut it out of my uterus. He said that it’s easier to remove the whole uterus. I said that I’d resolve mine with fasting. I told my doctor that fibroids feed off of sugar and that fasting and then cutting sugar would kill the fibroid. So I did. Every time I went back to get it check, which was Quarterly , the fibroid was smaller. One day it was gone. I reminded my doctor of how I resolved it and he just looked so irritated. 0:27
Btw, I got the fasting idea from Shawn Stevenson’s podcast, ‘the Model Health Show’. Good podcast.
It's great that that worked for you. I got a hysterectomy and wished I had gotten it sooner.
What was your pattern of fasting? What was your blood sugar level?
Omg please also let us know within how many periods of you starting to fast and and quitting sugar/carbs led you to finally not finding fibroids on your last USG! I too have started doing that so I’m really curious to know! It’s just been couple of months
Same with mec
Thanks for covering this Dr. Berg. I commented on one of your previous videos, I stated that "higher levels of vitamin D helped to shrink my fibroids." I'm a black woman and a registered nurse and I approve this video.
How high 4000iu
Please keep spreading the word. So many suffer needlessly because as near as I can figure, today's doctors are given 2 tools in their arsenal to "health": a prescription pad, and a scalpel. Totally ignoring everything else that can be beneficial and low cost.
@@antinellefrancis6168see his videos on correct amounts of vitamin d and on fibroids.
Wow, that's amazing. Thanks for sharing your story here. Stay safe.
Please share the HERS Foundation too. We need our organs for life.
I have fibroids and asked the gynae about vitamin D. They laughed it off but I learned a long time ago that the health system (even the NHS) don’t want us to be able to heal ourselves.
My doctor on the NHS quietly admitted that Vitamin D is connected to fibroids and then abruptly changed the subject letting me know she wouldn't be discussing it further. A lot of them know the truth but won't risk being fined (10K) and/or having their licence revoked.
@MMMC-z8y that should tell you, all you need to know. The system don't have humans well-being as a priority. They don't want healing, they just want to reduce the symptoms for profit.
They laugh at everything natural. I learned many decades ago tobuse them as a check and do my natural things, holistic things and use my herbs food roots etc to manage. Meanwhile, you go back to them and everything they say was an issue disappearing because it was treated with earth's love. I dont tell them anything unless they ask why it left. I've been taking Vitamin ,K more, spending more time out in sun (thank goodness I live in a subtropical area) and blessed to have sun many days in a year. Move if you need. Sunbath. As people from the Diaspora, or people who many have more melanin and appear brown as well need to get sun
The sweeter thr berry, the more natural Vitamin d in sunshine.
Take iodine. Listen to dr. Elizabeth bright videos
@@MMMC-z8yIts terrible if medical professionals are not free to suggest solutions.
3 months ago, I was in agony, bleeding for 1 month and a half at a time. I was 96 kilos, I was in severe pain 3 weeks out of 4. My dr said my only solution was a hysterectomy. I couldn’t face a surgery. I saw a video by dr Ken Berry. I started cold turkey on the carnivore diet, taking vitamin d every day and applying castor oil to my belly every day. 3 moths later, 12 kilos lighter, period regulated to 6 days a month, just a couple of pain days per month. I am a believer. I am going to eliminate these monsters completely without surgery. Ladies, take your health in your hands. You can do this.
That's great! Do you still apply Castor oil daily and do you think that helped? How much did your fibroids shrink in 3 months
Women helping women with our stories. 💜
6 years ago I was diagnosed with fibroids. I didn’t want surgery or to lose my uterus and I didn’t want to take medication for the rest of my life. I started eating fruits, vegetables and drinking more water for 90 days no coffee, tea, sugar, and dairy products. I also started walking every day. My fibroids have shrinkage and cured after the 90 days. I still can’t believe the doctor said I was going to be on medication long term for the pain and to have surgery to remove the fibroid. Even if you are having surgery just remember that you are not alone on this journey!!
❤❤ I love this for you. Man some Dr’s are just so evil. Or just plain ol dumb.
Love this for youuuu🙏🏽🧡🧡
Thank God for your wisdom. I was diagnosed with a 10 cm fibroid and low iron. The doctor made it sound like surgery was the only option and I needed to do it fast but I read the horror stories of the surgery and how the fibroids came back in many cases. I started taking 2000 IUs daily based off another of your videos recommending vitamin D may be the issue and it didn't even put a dent in my problem. I couldn't even wear pants due to the pain and sensitivity. Finally I started bleeding for months straight! I watched more of your videos and realized 2K IU wasn't enough. I started taking more and landed on 40K daily and the bleeding stopped🎉. I could wear pants again and the bulge in my abdomen has visibly reduced! You are out here saving lives! THANK YOU
Praise God!
Praise the Lord Alfa and Omega
That's amazing. Glad my videos helped you. Thanks for sharing your story here.
May I know how do you take 40K IU? Most drops are 1K so u take 40 drops? How about Vit D shot, would that be better absorb? Would love to shrink my 11 cm fibroid and avoid that terrifying surgery
@@jkwan7 I take 'trace minerals' brand vit D with K2. It's 5,000 IUs per 4 drops so i think 32 drops a day would be pretty easy especially if you divided it into 2 or 3 times a day.
My Dear, I have 3 uterine fibroids. Starting today I’ll increase my intake of vitamin D to 50000 iu/day. I’ll keep you posted, I have an ultrasound appointment scheduled in December. Thanks Dr Berg!
Great 👍 some of his videos on absorption of d3 may help further.
Same I have schedule for December too. But I got plenty of fibroids
All of you updated after your appointments
Don't miss his other videos, though, stating you need to balance it with K-2 and Magnesium, otherwise, such amount can result to calcification in your arteries, which you don't want.
Waow! Keep us posted 😊

Miraculously that fibroid nowhere to be found and went home 😊 true story. So now im drinking this everyday too because i have many small lumps in my breast.

Do any of the endometriosis patients healed totally with high doses of vit d?
@@viloteyesbas1884I'm curious to know that as well??
Same Sistren!!!! As well as eating food. Real food. Cut processed canned bagged boxed foods as much as possible. Get right with WATER, get magnesium. Walk outside. Don't be terrified of the sun like they tried to take us so we would be sick mentally and physically. Some listen some it takes time and they don't. Even with proof
Was diagnosed with fibroids and started taking soil clods mined in a certain part of kenya, together with garlic, ginger,turmeric, black pepper and oregano concoction and now I feel much better. Best of all leaky gut cured. I also do intermittent fasting and lot's of praying.
I went to obgyn and I told the doctor and the intern medical student my issue the indian doctor/student whispered get vitamin d. My issue aligns with this video
Dr Berg notes
Fibroids decrease in size after menopause, yet pregnancy, exposure to HRT, and birth control pills can cause fibroids to enlarge. Obesity, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and PCOS also increase the risk of fibroids. Black women have a 3 to 9 times higher risk of developing fibroids.
Estrogen is the primary driver of fibroids and endometriosis. A fibroid is a growth in the uterus, but it differs from uterine tissue in several ways. Fibroids are very sensitive to estrogen and have increased estrogen receptors, more of the enzyme aromatase, less oxygen than the uterus, and more inflammation.
Many health problems and risk factors associated with fibroids are related to low vitamin D. Vitamin D has incredible properties that may help inhibit the growth of fibroids.
There is also a vast amount of anecdotal evidence in support of using vitamin D to shrink fibroids.
Be sure to take vitamin D with the cofactors magnesium and vitamin K2.
Thank you Dr Berg!
😺👍
What is the best brand for vitamin k2 please?
thank you fidel
Yes, being outside, does help, since sun has vitamin D3.

@Texasbohemian88, please research the importance of iodine with PCOS. It also helps with hypothyroidism. So many times our bodies are crying out for more minerals and vitamins and doctors only prescribe drugs. Good that you are healing naturally!
Yes stay away from soda and junk food. I limit sugar as much as I can. I’m 43, I feel good. I was battling vitamin D deficiency in my 20s and 30s and it was horrible! I make sure to take my supplements and get sun as much as I can without getting any sunburn. I’m part Irish so 30 minutes to an hour daily is enough for me.
And gluten. Flare’s endometriosis really bad.
There are educated doctors who know more than the garbage that’s pushed. They are the minority of doctors, but they do exist. Many are honestly watching Dr. Berg because he is an expert in doing research and offering alternatives for the rare patient that wants more than side effect filled surgeries or pills. .
My mom (48) has fibroids and I was just telling her last night how I would do some extra research for her, to help her find anything to shrink the fibroids. We're willing to try everything healthy before surgery being the ultimate last resort. Then you drop this gem today. Thank you so much, Dr. Berg. Your work is life-changing.
I'm also 48 and used to have hormone problems. At 40 I changed my diet and now have no menstrual cramps after dealing with them for years and my doctor had said I might have adenomyosis, but the symptoms resolved on their own. I am the only woman my age I know with a normal period still and most women my age I know have had hysterectomies. I do the Nutritarian diet. It took about 6 months to really start noticing the hormone changes, so it doesn't happen right away. I think most people quit before seeing changes. I am truly grateful to feel good every day. Please pass this info on to your mom if you think it would help her. There is also a good book called Your Body in Balance by Neal Barnard that talks about these issues.
He’s made at least 5 more awesome videos on fibroids.
@@kimclark399 can you share the nutritarian diet
@@vanitagomes3794 Yes it is basically vegan, but whole foods based, though I do eat a bit of meat and dairy once in awhile. There are tons of videos here on YT about the diet by Dr. Joel Fuhrman. I am the only person I know who does the diet, and it was very hard at first and seemed weird, but now I enjoy it and I feel amazing because it fixed my health problems.
@@kimclark399 what is the nutritarian diet please
I could cry after listening to this. Back in 2019 I ended up having a hysterectomy after the discovery of a fibroid the size of a cantaloupe melon growing in my uterus. It went undetected for years as I was very silm/athletic in build due to all the crossfit, thai boxing, yoga and running that I did. For many years I just thought I had a prolapsed bladder (hence lots of strength exercises) or I was suffering with early peri-menopause. After the operation my former symptoms were gone however they had been exchanged with a set of new problems. If I knew very high doses of vitamin D had been my saviour, then I would have never had those operation.
Since following Dr Eric Berg I take high doses of vitamin D and I'm pleased to say I'm in pretty good health.
I feel for you.❤
Am so sorry but, same this happened to me this year. Some doctors look for a quick fix or easy way out.
❤
please tell me, which set of problems did you get after surgery? thank you
@paolac.1678 issues with nerve endings being severed inside after uterus removal. They are still raw 5 years later. Surgeon didn't seem bothered. 😕
Protect this man at all costs!!!!
Good info for all the women suffering with endometriosis. Thank you for addressing a painful condition the medical community has no answers for.
I read a book by Jawanza Kunjufu 40 years ago about African-American women getting fibroids. His book said it was due to dairy. I have found that true for me and the women in my family. My period was terrible also; now I know it was from the fibroids. The fibroids disappeared when I stopped eating dairy, but I recently started eating it again on a Carnivore diet. Well, the fibroids came back. I am letting the dairy go because I can actually feel them growing, and now it is affecting me to be able to control my urination when I wake up in the morning. I must run to the restroom. It's time to let the dairy go. I take about 10K IU of vitamin D3 a day because of a muscle disease I had, so I am used to taking vitamin D3 like this. When I get my blood test done at the doctor, they always say wow, your vitamin D is high. Thanks for your video, I follow you all the time. Thanks for such great information. I also take many of your supplements.
🧡💛🧡 I read this same book. I have never met anyone who has read this. Even raw dairy was an issue for me...even butter. I cannot remember the title to this book, but it mentioned dairy as the main culprit. May God Bless your beautiful soul dear 🙏.
10K units is the equivalent of 15 minutes of sun exposure. I might try upping it to 20K with the cofactors, and see if your dairy intolerance goes away.
Make sense because dairy has growth factors. Dr Berg has a very good video on this topic
@@abarnes8718not necessarily as long as the meat is not from animals injected with growth hormones and antibiotics. I eat guinea fowl, rabbit, pheasant and organic chicken, small fish like sardines and mackerel (to avoid high levels of mercury), wild caught salmon is great, apple cider vinegar with the mother, mixed peppercorns, black rice, spinach and broccoli and supplements especially vitamin D3 8000 ui, magnesium, red clover, zinc, and omega 3, and the fibroids are shrinking.

Diagnosed with fibroids in 2019. Watched my Mom grow a fibroid into what looked like a 7lb pregnant belly. She chose surgery and they ended up doing a complete hysterectomy. She became depressed after surgery. Said she would not have chosen to have hysterectomy knowing what it feels like after. The monthly started getting worse and worse for me. My normally flat stomach began to grow. I knew I had to change things or I would end up like my mom. Gave up dairy. Started taking vitamin d3 and experienced huge changes in a few months. I eat low sugar but still need to work on eliminating that and carbs from diet. Baby steps. But so thankful for this information! I will be upping my dosage of D3.
I have been chronic low on Vitamin D my whole life and I have had high estrogen and increasing fibroids proliferating in my 30s and now 40s. This makes so much sense. Thank you!
I’m in the same situation. I’m 43 and just find out my uterine line is getting thicker because over estrogen production which could eb dangerous . Ultrasounds are good to detect this issues
Same ive had a fibriod grow around the age 40 now 46 the size of a cherry probably growing , thick edometrial lining , high estrogen levels , heavy periods now anemic signs insulin levels are probably bit high , will b trying vitamin D and improving estrogen dominance
Another succes story here! 5 years ago I was diagnosed with uterine fibroid. It was 3cm big and they said its nothing and just a “cosmetic” thing. I had a lot of stress mainly from work back then and the fibroid started to grow rapidly - from 3cm to almost 9cm and I was told Id never have kids. First thing I did was reduce stress and got out for long walks outside to catch some sun. Fibroid decreased on size and I got pregnant :). Fast forward when I got pregnant again I took lots of vitamin D mainly for bones and healthy baby development. After my second pregnancy the fibroid was still there with the size of 15mm almost invisible on the ultrasound :). After watching Dr. Bergs videos about vitamin D I upped my dosage to 10 000. Going for an ultrasound in 1-2months Ill do an update.
Please respond to this comment later to let us know how it goes. Wishing u the best of luck 🙏
10,000 IU D3 a day? With how much K2? Have you checked your D levels? I was told this is too much but now this vid has me curious. So glad ur doing better!

My doctor also dropped me because I did not wish to have surgery!! Now i am happily doctor free. lol.
Answered prayer! I had a blood transfusion on Friday because of having a menstrual cycle that the doctors attribute to fibroids. They also suggested a hysterectomy, but although I'm 44, I still want the option to have more children. I was starting to get sad about the news and have increased my research. Thank you for sharing your findings for those who want and need to implement into our lives. Many blessings to you! I've ordered your vitamin D supplements.
Ask the doctor to prescribe tranexamic acid during your period to slow down your bleeding. I am 44, have fibroids and I have horrible bleeding during my period. I was finally prescribed tranexamic acid and I see a 50% less bleeding during my periods. The doctor wants to do a hysterectomy but I really don't want to do that. I pray that I get the fibroids reduced the natural way.
Sending you hug sweetie! I had a blood transfusion at 41 a month ago! I was so scared! I had it due to a small fibroid from heavy bleeding. I have cutting sugar and increasing vitamin D. *Hugs*
@@mcmc8556thank you sweetie!! I will ask my gynecologist about it!! 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
@@mcmc8556CAREFUL!! 😮
*Tranexamic acid* only reduce the amount of bleeding temporarily, to the cost of kidney problems and very reduced vision with the risk of blindness. I had to stop it after 6 months of very small reduction on my still very heavy bleeding, my kidneys and my eyes were suffering already.
Don't use or recommend such toxic chemical. Better is to use IODINE drops from kelp + 0 carb diet + 0 dairy + 0 estrogenic foods: soy, flax & sesame seeds. And now + vitamin D.
My fibroids reduced greatly. For the bleeding, look for a natural sourced PROGESTERONE cream or drops for the skin (good quality, not fake like many). I recommend the *expert in hormones Dr Michelle Sands from Glow Natural Wellness*
Hope it helps 🙏🏻

I trust Dr. Berg & his team over any modern medical physician any day!
FACTS!!
Before going through the video, I honestly teared up seeing this! My Dr wanted to convince me to have the hysterectomy but I refused instead I went through am embolization since I had a huge fibroids effecting my lifestyle. Today was my appointment with him and he was mad that I didn’t go through the surgery telling me that the shrinking is very slow and I came home sad don’t know what honestly! But I knew that I can heal naturally. I just opened my RUclips and this video popped in! Thank you Dr berg❤
I love this channel. Its about time someone broke this topic down . 😊😊😊😊
I’m crying!!! That pain is the worst combined with heavy bleeding!! Dr. Berg, it works and will work!! So thankful for your knowledge! Peace @ Blessings to you! ❤
I know this scary feeling. We will all be well🙏
These videos make my blood boil. Can’t believe I trusted drs and medicine for so long. I have so many problems and watching your videos gives me hope. I pray that God keeps you safe. Thank you for your honesty and care ✨
Omg, I wished that you were around in 2004 when I did a partial hysterectomy and hearing that I didn’t have to breaks my heart. I sent your video to my daughter who has fibroids. Thank you Dr Berg for giving us valuable info for our health.
@@annkdrama-queen1254 his other videos on fibroids may also help.
Appreciate this video. 🙂 👍🏽👏🏽 My mom got diagnosed with fibroids in her late 30s and she lived with fibroids for many years since. She refused to get any surgery done to treat it. She does not believe in having the uterus removed and she was afraid of surgery anyway. She just decided to go the natural health route of dealing with it (health supplements). She’s 65 and recently hit menopause. Fibroids haven’t been an issue for her these days.
Florida? It's the hysterectomy capital. We need informed consent hysterectomy laws in Florida
I had two or more large fibroids when I became pregnant which made my pregnancy more dangerous, especially my baby. Eight months after birth they were removed and 1.5 years later could get pregnant again, but had too much pain. Thank God he saved my baby’s life. I wish I would have had Dr. Berg to educate me 25 years ago. God bless you!!!🙏🙏🙏
Normally, if a woman has a fibroid, they may have 1 or 2, maybe up to about 6. These may be able to be surgically removed. Unfortunately, I had too many to count. My stomach was protruding like a 5 month pregnant lady. The fibroid and the removal surgery were too risky, I could bleed out, they would scar the uterus preventing a successful pregnancy and they would likely grow back. I had to have an abdominal hysterectomy and couldn't have kids. In Australia at the time (I don't know if it has changed), you couldn't adopt after 35, I was 37 and surrogacy is illegal unless someone offers and doesn't accept a payment. As Australia has the highest rate of skin cancer in the world, I always stayed out of the sun. I had all that free Vitamin D at my finger tips. I wish I had known this information then. However, thank you Dr Berg for getting this information out and helping people... not be like me.
I experienced a very similar situation. God bless you, friend. Words are not enough at all, but I share your grief and am so sorry.
@elizabethboland696 Thank you for them kind words ♥️. Now I send them back to you. I'm so sorry to you as well.
Sadly, there was and still is a lot of disinformation about the role of Vit D in healthcare. Docs like Dr. Berg are treated as pariahs by the establishment because they don’t follow the typical managed care flow sheets for “proper care” that brings in the most 💰& keeps patients in the waiting room.
We can be thankful for the Covid debacle for one thing: opening iu eyes to the massive scams in (USA) healthcare and government control of the food supply that haven’t resulted in a healthier population.
I haven't been able to have children either. I had one extremely healthy baby. Then I couldn't get pregnant anymore after I had been on birth control for a year or two. Had been trying for over 3 years. But I had 4 shots and was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition afterwards (rare side effects "very rare") vein disease, seizures, ECT. Maybe it is best these days...? I mean it's not like the food and air quality gets better every year for the children living here. Or maybe it does, don't want my comments removed.
Australians are probably the highest users of carcinogenic sunscreens too.
I have been told 4 cm fibroid. I had my baby last year witb out complication. But,i really wanted it to go . Very timely. Thank you,Dr .
Hope the video will help you. Take care.
I have suffered with fibroids for years. I did not want a hysterectomy after seeing how one impacted my mom. Thank you for this video.❤❤❤❤

@LoveLove-fx9hf
Sorry for the late reply.
No, it's gone worse 😢
I had a myomectomy surgery when I was 28 to remove my fibroids because of my heavy periods and I was unable to get pregnant. After the surgery I was able to have 2 children. Fibroids came back when I was in my mid forties and had another less invasive surgery to remove the fibroids called an embolization surgery. But that surgery took me straight into menopause……I am now 65 and happy that period in my life is behind me!
I'm 46, and I just had a partial hysterectomy back in July. I still have my ovaries. I also had a myomectomy at 28. I never wanted kids, though. I am grateful to never have a period again.
Wish I'd known about this in 1999, when I was told had two huge fibroids 'the size of grapefruits'. I was given a full hysterectomy, where everything was taken away, and I haemorrhaged during the operation. I had to be given several litres of blood, and almost died. Miraculously, I suffered no ill effects afterwards, which seemed to cause some amazement in the hospital, but it was a very close call. I had to be tested for AIDS later, as some of the blood had not been checked before use. Lucky again. Pay attention to Dr Berg, ladies!
I found it concerning, when they wanted to do estrogen therapy for menopause. (Years ago, it was popular.) I refused it, and now I’m very glad I did. God bless. And Thank you again Dr. Berg!
They still do. So many menopause Facebook groups that applaud using hrt. Also menopause doctors pushing this. So wrong many people grab HRT as a quick band aid but not many women trying to change their lifestyle, diet and supplements. So many complain months after taking HRT that their symptoms return. They return cause they never changed anything in their life
God richly bless you for making this video for we women living with fibroids.
I'm a man, nevertheless I will watch this video as it is by Dr.Berg.

@@DrbergSir plzzz help me i hv dignosed with fibroids ....as big as 8 month pregnant even i can feel and move it with my hands from outside like fetus ..no heavy bleeding but ofcourse pain in first two days of period with fever no other symptom is foud i just come across your videos and started taking vitamin d3 10000iu per day i feel energy and a power in my body but still i want to consult u about my fibroids ...as my local doctors told me the hystrectomy is the only solution i dont want to go for hytrectomy what should i do to shrink my fibroids
This doctor is literally a gem. I had so many fibroids, which resulted heavy and nearly unbearable periods. I tried changing my diet but didn't see too much change. Eventually I got a myomectomy. A year later they found some small fibroids going back . I felt pretty defeated. Of course I was young and dumb and didn't I needed to take vitamins . I unfortunately had 2 failed pregnancy and met a doctor that suggested vitiamonds. I am seeing a change. And I will start doing more research on vitamin D. Thanks Dr. Berg .... What you are doing for your viewers is wonderful ❤ Berge
The vitamin D works before knew about this video. My doctor had prescribed me 50,000 I use a vitaminD but it wasn’t for fibroids. It was because my vitamin D was low but then I noticed that my stomach wasn’t looking like I was five months pregnant anymore so I changed my diet and started knowing that it was the vitamin D that was assisting with the.fibroids, sometimes I think my doctor just knew, but couldn’t tell me. and when I told him I had changed my eating habits and started taking smoothies he was so excited and told me keep it up and when I would come back and check my fibroid and fibroids shrink and my thyroid levels were balanced. Started eating brown rice and white rice and switched to quinoa. Chicken cutlet, add all the vegetables and stirfry them in chicken broth instead of oil.
• Spinach
• Onion
• Green bell pepper
• Carrots
• Yellow bell pepper
• Red bell pepper
• Orange bell pepper
• Green squash (zucchini)

• Ginger
• Cooked quinoa

Thanks 🙏 making this video. I am a black British woman. I’ve had fibroids the last seven years. At age 40 I was taken to hospital being severely anaemic. They found a large amount of fibroids and I’d had heavy bleeding. It’s now changed since perimenopause
I went vegan and all my fibroids disappeared… the important point is to eat healthily and keep educating yourself always
Really. How big was your fibroids
... you should stop being vegan emediately - please, please go carnivore!!! Watch Dr. Robert Kiltz and Dr. Ken Berry!
Vegans are one of the most high risk groups for vit D deficiency. My friend is vegan and struggles with fibroids. Im glad yours went away, but still it is anecdotal.
Pretty sure vegan diet is not what Dr. Berg supports.
Go get a tan to dramatically improve your vitamin D requirement.
Up to 80% of women develop fibroids by age 40. The video explores the connection between vitamin D deficiency and fibroids, discussing how vitamin D may help shrink fibroids naturally and alleviate symptoms. It covers fibroid causes, characteristics, and potential benefits of vitamin D supplementation.
Dr. Berg, you are the reason that I became a carnivore 2023 at age 50! I really appreciate you and your dedication to truth! Love you much!
Glad I was able to help you. Thank you very much for your love and support.
@Drberg Thank you so much for this video!! Can you share a little more about endometriosis and fertility? Since changing my lifestyle to carnivore and high fat, my body has been in recovery mode for a year and half..... hair is healthy, less tinging in my feet, less inflammation and better sleep. I take magnesium glycinate, k2, 15,000iu of D3 omega 3,B1 and probiotic. Again, thank you for telling the truth!
Hi Dr Berg when I was diagnosed with fibroids the gynaecologist I was sent to was immediately lining up the surgery date for hysterectomy. I said NO and he got quite angry with me . Dinosaur 🦕 I then went to my naturopath and he recommended I3C (cruciferous veg ) to balance my hormones. I took it for a year and completely forgot about my fibroids. I went back to the GP and got another ultrasound. The fibroids had disappeared!!! I told her what I was taking and she said that they would have shrunk on their own 🤦♀️So I asked her WHY would they remove my uterus then !?!?! Absolutely crazy making . Women are being ripped off by ignorant doctors. I continued taking I3C for decades and I sailed through menopause without symptoms or discomfort!! I later learned about high dosage Vitamin D3 so I also took that in small dosages. Since meeting you I have slowly upped my D to about 40,000 and I’ve added in K2, magnesium, zinc and copper . I’ve always taken selenium. 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
YES - we are. Please check out the HERS Foundation. I'm going to start an advocacy for adverse effects hysterectomy consent law. It's past time
Did you eat the cruciferous vegetables raw or cooked and how often did you consume them?
Hi
Where can I buy
Goes deeper than this. No sugars, wheat or dairy, meditation and no stress as well as staying away from plastics and bpa and eating clean organic and lots of green veggies :) as well as keeping ph balanced for inflammation :) heal heal heal
i do all that, no sugar, no dairy, no gluten, only organic food and cosmetics since 10 years already, never took any hormonal pills or chemical contraception, adding d-vitamin, b-komplex, selenium, zinc, magnesium, drink green tea, eat cbd, vitex berry..all.. but.. they keep growing.... keep away from plastic bpa, have glass food storage containers, mostly wear cotton (underwear always 100% organic cotton), but of course sometimes trousers and shirts and sweaters have poliester in them.. but it is nearly to impossible to have no plastic near or on you, or touching your food at least at some point (even organic vegetables are wrapped in plastic in the grocery stores).
No stress?? Do you live in this world???
@@Trekgirl107 yes I have the best life I’m so blessed no stress :)
Well said.

I live a block away from a golf course and we have a large amount of deer in the neighborhood. Almost all of the deer have large growths on them. I told the Colorado parks and wildlife biologist about it and she completely passed it off. I've never seen anything like it anywhere else. They use so many pesticides and herbacides, not only on the golf course but on all the surrounding home's lawns and landscaping, it's like they're waging chemical warfare over there.
It all needs to be banned
Papillomavirus? Virus that will cause fibromas. Are the growths dark?
It's an an over active thyroid glad. It gives the deer tumors caused by chemicals in the environment. It's been happening in other states as well.
Take pictures put them on line.This is terrible for our beautiful God given wildlife. thankyou for informing us🙏❤️
It’s true, and I can testify to this. I have three fibroids that were detected during my pregnancy (due to high estrogen levels). Since then, I’ve been getting annual ultrasounds, and to my surprise, my fibroids have actually decreased in size and haven’t grown at all since I started taking 10,000 IU of D3 combined with K2. This is definitely not a coincidence, as those fibroids had been growing for years, but now they’re shrinking. I can prove this 100% with my test results.
Note: I have been taken 10,000 IU + K2 for more than 8 months . It really works
@@fabisenhorinhadid you take it daily?
Im a redhead and also allergic to dairy. So naturally, minimal sun exposure or proper supplementation led to massive fibroids despite being at an appropriate weight, never became pregnant, and did not have hypertension. Still needed to have a TAH. Wish i knew this two years ago.
Hands down the best video on this topic. Thanks Dr Berg! As a black woman, I also think our other challenge is that we eat way too many carbs. Regardless of nationality, I have noticed carb consumption among fellow black people is really high. I recently switched to Keto thanks to your videos.
This was the only helpful video I’ve found on RUclips in the past years
I’ve just been diagnosed with Adenomyosis and Fibroids. After suffering for 10 years, and 5 OBGYN’s later, my OB now, recently made this diagnosis. I have a hysterectomy scheduled for next month. Has been a long journey that left me both physically and emotionally exhausted, hopefully more research continues and more women can avoid this suffering as I have endured.
I was told I have 2 fibroids and I would need a hysterectomy.
I said no maam because it was not giving me any issues.
I got on top of my vitamins and sleep and my fibroid shrunk. They were shook because I didn’t take that medication they wanted to give me or move forward with a hysterectomy.
Thank you for this information Dr. Berg.
You are very welcome! Congratulations on your success. Keep up the good work!
what all , which vitamins u took ?
I had a 10 cm fibroid and had to have a myomectomy a while back. Another one ended up growing back and I was extremely disappointed. Doctors didn’t have any explanation. I refused to accept that “it just happens” so I did extensive research and learned all about how and why they show up. I even learned which herbs to take and what type of diet to have to shrink them. It’s still there but I rarely feel it. I only notice it when I start slacking off on my healthy lifestyle.
Beet juice, fasting and herbs works wonders btw.
which herbs ?
Black face general leaves alleviated my fibroids. Boiled a few leaves in water and drink for a few weeks. Go Google to find out more. I didn't need surgery after that.
Its so crazy watching this video i just took off from work today because of my fibriod pain I am a black woman and i am 25 i got diagnosed with pcos &endometriosis 2 years ago i have always had horrible periods and cramps and thought it was normal and this was never properly explained to me until now thank you ❤
Walk, breath, support liver (reduce sugar and stress, move after eating, reduce eating frequently, don't sleep after eating), and get some sun/light to relax and vitamin d.
There’s a video here on RUclips “High Level Conversation “ interview with 19 Keys and a black young lady who suffered with fibroids and extreme period pain until she detoxed by changing her diet. She went whole food vegan. She mentioned that when she slipped up and went back to her old ways of eating with all the processed foods that she would experience fibroid growth and extreme period pain again. So she learned to stay whole food vegan.
I also used to experience extreme discomfort with my period in my teen years and early 20s until I started taking Red Raspberry Leaf tea/supplement and a good women’s multivitamin. Wish you the best ❤
Sending hugs sweetie!!! I’m
41 and discovered my first fibroid at 37 years old. I can’t go to work the first day of my
Period due to the pain and heavy bleeding!! Wishing you the best! ❤
Sorry to hear that. Wishing you good health. Take care.
Have you looked into a vegan diet?
Fibroids are a somatic representation of "Nursing a hurt from a partner. A blow to the feminine ego." Mantra: "I release the pattern in me that attracted this experience. I create only good in my life." - Louis Hay, Heal Your Body, pg 34
Great to see Dr. Merritt, she is a gem.
Thank you for covering this topic. It's not covered enough or talked about. If 80% of women end up with these, it should be talked about EARLY as a requirement in high school or college or more on the news. To learn more about 'diet matters'.
I almost died from mine (hemorrhaging) and didn't even know what they were. Anyway tried taking vit d3 but started getting constipation and quit. Is there anyway around this?
One of my fibroids shrunk from 12cm to 8cm in 9mos. and all of them said they hardly ever shrink and we need to take out your uterus. All's i've done so far is cut out alcohol and caffeine and 4 1/2 mos. acupuncture. Even after the last ultra sound, and telling doctor one has shrunk he just ignored me. He still wants a hysterectomy.
Now, would like to try what your saying. Ladies don't listen to doctors if they say they do not shrink, because if your making efforts I'm proof they DO. Heard turminic helps as well. I Cut out soy as well and fried foods. TY Doctor.
I have never seen an honest doctor like you. You are saviour. Thanks
At 44 and already been through surgery to remove a 6cm fibroid two years ago, I was diagnosed with two new ones and I am not prepared to go through that again. Thank you for the information.
You're absolutely welcome!
Got diagnosed with multiple fibroids last Friday with options suggested from do nothing and deal to a hysterectomy. I spent the weekend going down the rabbit hole of research since I truly don’t have the time or financial resources for surgery without a great deal if time to prepare. In the meantime I decided to look for natural ways. So grateful your videos popped up.
Wonderful information Doctor.....will this help cysts (PCOS) too...I don't know what we would do without u ....you are an angel to me... Thankyou again ❤
I’ve been diagnosed with Fibroids. I have one that is nagging pain on my left side. I started taking 40-50,000 every two weeks and the pain is subsiding!! It does work!
If you are taking vitamin D, make sure you are also supplementing potassium. My potassium levels dropped significantly, and caused major health pfoblems.
I'm now 39 years i have 3 fibroid as said bu my doctor when i was 36 and trying to conceive. I have a daughter but for about 6years now is difficult for me to have another baby.
I now understand cuz I'm black skin and bearly go out in the sun
Thanks for sharing ❤❤❤
Thank you Doc this video is going to save a lot of women who do not want to be mutilated off their organs. Thank you for being such an amazing doctor 🙏
You're absolutely welcome!
I wish I'd known this 15 years ago. I developed a small fibroid and had an op which didn't resolve the pain and vile periods. I was working all hours and travelling 4 times a month long haul. As a black woman, living in UK, I must have been in significant negative D3. Thank you Dr Berg.
No problem. Wishing you good health.
Thank you for this and i will start taking vitamin D. I'm a 34 year old Jamaican lady and have fibroids as long as I can remember. I also have two friends my age group that also have it. My Doctors says no one knows what causes it but dairy helps increase it. I got a list of what to stop eating, after the list all that seems to be left is grass.
In the late 70s I went to very old Naturopath who told me this about OVARIAN CYSTS: if you cease the use of caffeine including chocolate FROM the day you ovulate TO the day you start menstruating YOU WILL NEVER GET A CYST AGAIN. He then made kind of a funny point, he asked "have you ever heard of a man having cysts?😅 Anyway he went on to tell the reason why, he said "ESTROGEN + CAFFEINE = CYSTS, that when you add caffeine to estrogen rich time between ovulation and 1st day of menstruation, it is the only time your body will make an ovarian cyst. 🎉
I have requested Dr. Berg for an in depth video on Endometriosis. And now here it is ☺️
Thank you so much for providing such hands on virtual learning and remedies to us.
I am 64 and had a hysterectomy in 2010 due to fibroids. Long story short doctor said he had never seen so many or so many large fibroids. My periods were so heavy for so long that my iron was at a 2 and had to be raised before surgery. Sure wish I knew this 30 years ago! I wonder if any doctors are telling young women this information. I have also struggled with raising my vitamin d levels.
I have a garden of fibroids! Im 49 cant wait until i go into menopause bc I know my fibroids will shrink
Dr berg is a life saver ❤
Absolutely *BRILLIANT* interview of Drs. Merritt and Wagh. Watched it some time ago. 👏🏾🏆
I had a myomectomy done in 1987. I was 34 years old. The doctor wanted me to have a hysterectomy. I was in tears and protested, so I had the myomectomy done.
Went to the doctor recently. I am now 73 and was told I had 4 that are now benign.
My 30 yr old just found out she has fibroid. This information came in just in time. Thank you Doctor.
This is GREAT to know!! Roughly 5 years ago, I had an awful pain and visit to the ER where they wanted to do surgery. I started doing Castor Oil packs with a heating pad, and I haven't had the pain ever again. Whenever I feel any pain coming on, I'll do a castor oil pack, and it wipes out the pain. I didn't know about the Vitamin D though - I'll definitely work harder to keep it up in my regimen. Thanks Dr Berg!!
My wife has suffered with Endometriosis for decades, and now takes 10000IU Vit D3 with K2 every day. Maybe she should increase it short term and see if there are any improvements for her. I have sent her this video. Thank you 😊
Let her know about estrogen dominance. Watch a lot of videos about that. Will help
Has the vit d made any difference to her?
How does she take so much? My tablets are only 800IU id need to take at least 11 a day 😫🙈
@@lilneets5141we have tablets of 5000IU, so she only takes two tablets per day
I LOVE YOU DR. BERG! I'm literally thanking JESUS for you. You care about everybody and that's all we ask for. ❤❤❤❤❤
Prolonged stress can cause fibroids as well. If you look at fibriods on a cellular level, the oxidative stress and disfunctional autophagy functions. The best research looks at fibroids on a cellular level.
I took 50,000 iu of D3 daily. Not weekly like the study in Iran from 2019. I'm confident that it's gone now.
Very interesting. I've been having some issues with perimenopause, and my doctor placed me on some hormones, and the medicine says, " Avoid direct sunlight." I am a Black woman. I always am suspicious anytime meds say stay out of direct sunlight. I will not continue this medicine after this month. Thank you, Dr. Berg.
sry to say this but honestly your dr sound kind a suspicious I use to work as hairdresser and 1 of my customer was dr and he told if I have any doubt go to see another dr to get 2nd opinion for my safety, and actually I did when I had a stress fracture bone 1dr recommend surgery right away but 2nd dr just put me on the boot for couple months and healed back

2yrs ago. I was 46 years old when I desperately needed a hysterectomy. I had one large 5 cm fibroid but the rest of my uterus was completely compacted with them. My uterus was the size of a grapefruit and hard like a rock. My last 3 cycles were a murder scene, insanely scary and my last 2 cycles my cervix wouldn't open properly, so I was in constant contractions but I eventually passed a blood clot the size of a grapefruit and then lost 600 mL of blood in 2 minutes. They (ER) gave me IV medication to slow down the bleeding and gave me fluids and 2 weeks later I was rushed in for a hysterectomy before my next cycle. The only thing I kept was my ovaries. For 4 years I was losing so much blood I was always anemic and always getting iron infusions. I always took all of my vitamins especially D3. But it didn't help at all. I am just shy of 49 years old now and very close to menopause. But I couldn't wait and my OBGYN didn't want to wait because it was too dangerous.
I wonder if you were taking the d3 with k2 and magnesium for absorption…I wish I had known this, myself when I was suffering with fibroids.
Thank you so much for addressing this. I had an embolization to block the flow of blood to it. Some did shrink and pass but grew back. I wanted a partial hysterectomy but the didn’t want to give it to me while in Texas.
Since they are prolife and because of my age, saying 8 might change my mind since I’m still young. I lost my mom very young so we never had this discussion at 14 and she was 39 when she passed. I need help too because I have PCOS. Thank you for addressing this. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I believed this. I mentioned in the comment section about your cod liver oil video that my breastfeeding wife took cod liver supplement. Now we add d3 10,000 to 20,000 iu with magnesium glycinate every night. We really saw significant changes. My wife got better mood no aches and pain and sleep very well even though she keeps breastfeeding our child at dawn. We owe our health to you Dr. Berg. Ive learned many things from you since 2018. Please continue to bring us good health. We keep continued supporting you thru sharing. ❤️ .
Thank you for sharing this valuable information! A hysterectomy was the first course of action my doctor presented to me. When I quickly declined, he then recommended another medical procedure, and finally (and sarcastically) offered a third option of “doing nothing”. I went home and began doing my own research. I am currently choosing a natural route of managing my fibroids. I’ve just ordered the book you’ve recommended. Thanks again Dr.Berg!
So there is a video like this, Oh my GOD. I don't want to dwell on the regret of not seeing it before now... Yes! this was the best time to come across it, THANK YOU DOCTOR.
I wish I had this information when I had the excessive periods of my youth. At least I had no surgery for the fibroid which disappeared after menopause set in. I hope young women are listening.
Dr Berg ist the best. Keep spreading the word. Greetings from Germany
Thank you for your message. Appreciate it!
Thank you Dr., Berg! I started on liquid iodine drops, and NAC, and taking a high quality liquid vitamin, as well as laying out in the Arizona sun for roughly 20 minutes several times a week, and much of my female issues have resolved.

I suffered from fibroids in my utertus and breasts for 10 years. I had the uterine ablation. Did it work? Nope. I continued with my monthly cycle with heavy flow for 2 more years. I gave up my doc and went online. I purchased a product nattokinase from Europe at the time that I remember paying 80 bucks for. Yikes I never told my husband. All I can say is that when the flow was really going I took the nattokinase in 20 min flow slowed. 2 cycles stopped the problem altogether and I never suffered again. I have pcos too. I am 58 now and thru menopause. I did this 16 yrs ago.
It's probably the vitamin K2 in fermented soya that helped you, as vitamin K2 is anti-coagulant. On the other hand, I'm not sure that soya is advisable in cases of uterine fibroids because soya contains too many phytoestrogens.
@sossodelune7872 all I know is that they went away, my health got better finally finally free of the problem. The only thing I took was nattokinase which is known I. Europe to discover fibroids.
I developed a fibroid sometime between age 43 and 47. I started taking progesterone during that time because my endocrinologist saw my progesterone was low. Since then, I have found out I have Vitamin D resistance and I'm now taking 20,000 IU per day (with K2) and have done this for 6 months. My blood level for Vit D is 130. I'm not obese at all. I'm now 49 and had the fibroid checked with an ultrasound. I'm not sure if it shrank but my doctor isn't concerned. I'm seeing a new doctor and am asking them to compare the size over time because I'm curious. Thank you, Dr. Berg ❤ and hello from Floyd, Va
Hi @kmx108. Were you still taking the progesterone along with the the vitamin d please?
@@Emmanuellaphotosgallery yes, I'm still taking progesterone. I'm in perimenopause now (at 49) and was having trouble with the symptoms of hot flashes and insomnia. I'm taking a small dose of estrogen now, also, which has completely eliminated the symptoms, so I want to watch my fibroid closely since I'm on HRT. My doctor has even prescribed testosterone cream, which I took for a while. She said testosterone has benefits for women as long as you don't start seeing signs of too much (like hair darkening.)
@KMx108 please follow up with those ultra sound results. Mine shrank years ago and then grew back larger. I plan to try Vin d3/k2/magnesium plus progesterone.
@@muse3241 thanks for the warning/head-up. I definitely will.
@@Emmanuellaphotosgallery I replied but it looks like it was deleted. Yes, I am still taking progesterone along with the D3.
OMG!,I suffered from this in my younger age. If I only knew then what i learned now! Thank You Dr. You are wonderful.
So sad we didn't know about this in the late 90's. I had a Grapefruit size fibroid removed and ended up with a total hysterectomy (after a partial) by the age of 31! To think it could have been different is mind blowing
