Speaking on Joy FM’s Super Morning Show on January 27, Dr Sefogah said there are no herbs capable of dissolving fibroids, despite widespread claims to the contrary.
“There are no herbs that will melt fibroids,” he said. “We’ve had far too many concerns of women drinking gallons of herbal preparations to melt the fibroid. These are tumours. They are growths in the womb. Nothing can melt it.”
He explained that fibroids are physical growths in the uterus, and when they become problematic, the only effective option is medical or surgical removal.
“If it’s problematic, it has to be removed,” he stated.
Dr Sefogah also raised the alarm over dangerous practices involving the insertion of herbal substances into the birth canal. He said some women have been given very strong herbal preparations to insert vaginally, leading to severe damage.
“Unfortunately, some women have been given herbs to insert in the birth canal,” he said. “These are very strong. They go and burn the place, and the place becomes stuck together.”
According to him, this can result in the closure of the vagina, preventing normal menstruation and sexual intercourse.
“The woman cannot see her flow. They cannot have sexual intimacy because the vagina is closed,” he explained.
Despite these harmful interventions, Dr Sefogah stressed that the fibroids remain untreated.
“The fibroids are still there. The menstrual flow is stuck there every month, so the tummy is getting bigger,” he said.
He advised women to avoid herbal treatments for fibroids, emphasising that they do not respond to such medication.
“So, my dear women, fibroids do not respond to herbal medication,” Dr Sefogah said.
In an earlier discussion with Joy FM, Dr Sefogah explained that fibroids form when womb cells grow uncontrollably, often in multiples. Key risk factors include obesity, high estrogen levels, pregnancy, diet, especially red meat, and genetics.
He also warned that hypertension can increase the risk, while maintaining a healthy lifestyle, managing weight, and reducing salt intake can help prevent the condition.
