Uterine fibroids (also known as leiomyomas or myomas) are non-cancerous tumours that develop in the uterus due to hormonal imbalances, genetic predisposition, and oestrogen dominance.
They can cause heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, pressure symptoms, and fertility issues.
While conventional treatments include hormonal therapy and surgery, homeopathy works holistically to shrink fibroids, regulate hormones, and relieve symptoms naturally.
In this guide, we will explore the best homeopathic medicines for uterine fibroids, followed by biochemic remedies, miasmatic relations, and dietary tips to manage symptoms effectively.
Understanding Uterine Fibroids: Causes
- Hormonal Imbalance – Excess oestrogen stimulates fibroid growth.
- Genetic Factors – Family history increases the risk.
- Obesity & High BMI – Fat cells produce excess oestrogen, promoting fibroid growth.
- Chronic Inflammation – Poor diet, stress, and toxins contribute to fibroid formation.
Common Symptoms of Uterine Fibroids
- Heavy menstrual bleeding (menorrhagia) with clots.
- Prolonged periods lasting more than 7 days.
- Pelvic pressure or bloating due to enlarged uterus.
- Frequent urination or constipation (if fibroids press on the bladder or bowel).
- Lower back pain or pain during intercourse.
- Difficulty conceiving or recurrent miscarriages.
Miasmatic Relations in Uterine Fibroids
Homeopathy considers miasms (underlying disease tendencies) in treating chronic conditions like fibroids.
The primary miasms involved are:
Sycotic Miasm – Overgrowth of tissue, excess oestrogen, slow fibroid development.
Psoric Miasm – Hormonal imbalance, mild bleeding, nutritional deficiencies.
Syphilitic Miasm – Ulceration, degeneration, and large painful fibroids.
By identifying the dominant miasm, a homeopath can select deeper constitutional remedies for long-term healing.

Avoid Dairy, Red Meat, and Processed Foods
