Remedies for uterine polyps

Remedies for uterine polyps: Professor Akim Bouterra's guidance, complemented by what the research says (linden, valerian, and calming plants), the precautions to know, and our resources to go further.

To treat these benign tumors, the first step is to fight stress, and if no medication is being taken for that, the woman can take St. John's wort in capsule form, two to three per day. She can also combine these capsules with linden herbal tea. In addition, don't hesitate to alternate between St. John's wort, passionflower, and valerian.

Also, to improve venous circulation and fight heavy menstrual flow, it's advisable to consume plants such as witch hazel, blackcurrant, and ginkgo biloba; this trio can be found in single-dose sachets, and a woman suffering from uterine polyps can prepare two to three herbal teas before meals.

To fight fatigue and hemorrhaging, spirulina will be a very good ally, and two tablets should be taken at each meal.

Furthermore, this problem can affect the liver and kidneys, which is why it's important to remember to drain these organs with artichoke leaves.

In case of heavy hemorrhaging, green clay poultices will be effective, once or twice a day.

What the science says: linden, valerian and calming plants

What published research says about the remedies mentioned above, for context only — studies address material causes, but healing belongs to Allah.

Linden, valerian and calming plants

Valerian improves sleep quality according to several meta-analyses (Am J Med, 2006) (J Evid Based Integr Med, 2020); linden contains anxiolytic flavonoids (J Ethnopharmacol, 2008), and a network review compares plants against anxiety (passionflower, lemon balm, lavender…) (Pharmacol Res, 2022). Precaution: do not combine valerian, passionflower or hops with sleeping pills and anxiolytics without medical advice; avoid before driving; use for a few weeks at a time rather than continuously.
