I was just about to seek medical help for fibroids when I read about the molasses treatment on Earth Clinic and tried it. The bleeding between periods has stopped and I am still taking the Molasses treatment and keeping my fingers crossed and praying for a total cure. I have always had a binge on ice cubes and was surprised to read that some women who have fibroids also have the ice cube habit. Is there a logical medical explanation for this?

The cause of ice binging among women with fibroids is due to anemia. Anemia is caused from the blood loss induced by fibroids. If you have symptoms like weakness, fatigue, paleness, ice binging, shortness of breath or slight burning in the chest upon exertion, etc. Then you must see your doctor for a bloodtest. They can prescribe a high-iron supplement. Be sure to get the right kind as not all iron is equally bio-available. The way iron is prescribed can also be confusing: e. G. 200 mg of Ferrous Sulfate = 65 mg of elemental iron. Be sure you know what your doctor means with the amounts and types they prescribe. A good pharmacist can also help you decipher your doctor's intention.
