Nollywood actress Ini Dima-Okojie recently shared encouraging news about her health regarding fibroids. In a TikTok video posted on October 6, 2024, she revealed that her fibroids have shrunk following her holistic health journey, despite their recurrence.
Ini mentioned that a recent ultrasound confirmed the reduction in size compared to her last check-up, marking a positive step in her ongoing health journey. Her openness about her experiences aims to raise awareness and provide hope to others facing similar challenges.
She said, “I made some lifestyle changes since I found out that the fibroids are back. So I went to the hospital recently to do an ultrasound scan and the fibroids are shrinking, so we’re doing something right; something is working.”
In July 2024, Okojie shared that her fibroids came back after three years of surgery to remove them. In a video she posted, she talked to her followers about the difficulties she was experiencing and her future plans.
She explained, “I want to share something important with you today. If you’ve been following me, you would probably know that before the end of 2020, I had a myomectomy, which is an evasive surgery to take out fibroids. The surgery was successful; my doctor removed every single fibroid and I healed well. It’s been 3 years since the surgery and unfortunately, the fibroids are back.”
The actress regularly updated her fans about her natural method for reducing fibroids, as she did not want to have surgery again. She shared that she had stopped eating bread, meat, and other foods to help shrink her fibroids.
“Dairy, so cheese, milk, refined sugar like cookies, cakes, condiments and processed food in general. Also, carbonated drinks and caffeine. Honorary mention, sodium and anything high in salt. So I am avoiding these things because they are high in estrogen and these things can make the fibroids grow,” said Okojie.
