Frequently asked
questions
I don’t want to take drugs/have surgery. What
else can I do?
The decision as to whether or not to take drugs or have surgery
ultimately lies with the patient and only they can make that
decision. The alternatives are trying to control symptoms
with complementary therapies, nutrition or self management.
Many women have found their symptoms have improved with complementary
therapies such as acupuncture, homeopathy, reflexology and
osteopathy. It
is wise to seek help from a qualified practitioner. A change
of diet has also been found to have positive benefits including
cutting out or reducing the amount of red meat, wheat and
dairy products. Please see our
publications section
for details of further information.
