Herniaman (Athens - Greece) on 04/15/2026
I had great success with Diindolylmethane (DIM). Not total healing yet. I used 300mg of DIM per day with meal. Plus black pepper extract 5 mg for added absorption. I had my hernia protrude just one hour after waking up. Now just 8 days of taking DIM and half the day the hernia is in without wearing a belt. It might need 3 months of supplementing. If you search chatgpt what are the natural blockers of ESR1 you will see why I took DIM. DIM is not as powerfull as fulvestrant. So I put topically from day 10, rosemary oil for the same reason, do George Hirst's excersises for stronger muscles around the inguinal canal and used a spiky massage ball for the fibrosis. Some phytoestrogens are antagonists of agressive types of astrogen but they are also estrogens.
Why fulvestrant is the solution? Search the study 'Estrogen receptor alpha ablation reverses muscle fibrosis and inguinal hernias. Tanvi Potluri, …, Hong Zhao, Serdar E. Bulun

Some people say that convex belts (not even pad) can make matters worse when pressing in the inguinal ring especially when the hernia protrudes in the belt.
Even men need estrogen so one must not overdo it. That is why I used rosemary topically and not in the system.
