Summary

This study tests whether taking green tea extract (EGCG) and vitamin D3 daily can prevent uterine fibroids from growing back after surgical removal. About 240 women who have had fibroid surgery will receive either the supplements or a placebo. The goal is to see if this simple combination can reduce the chance of new fibroids forming.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: EGCG (green tea extract) and vitamin D3
What this could lead to: If it works, this could offer a simple, low-cost way to prevent uterine fibroids from returning after surgery, reducing the need for repeat procedures.
What could go wrong: This is a phase 2 trial with 240 participants, so results are still early. The supplements may not prevent recurrence, and individual responses may vary.
