Summary

This pilot study tested whether taking a combination of EGCG (from green tea), vitamin D, and D-chiro-inositol for three months before hysteroscopic myomectomy improves surgical outcomes. 90 women with uterine fibroids were divided into two groups: one received the supplements before surgery, the other did not. Researchers compared surgery time, fluid use, and how completely fibroids were removed.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), vitamin D, and D-chiro-inositol
What this could lead to
If it works, this could make hysteroscopic myomectomy faster and more complete for women with uterine fibroids.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study (90 participants) with no blinding or placebo, so results may not be reliable or generalizable. The supplements may not meaningfully improve surgery outcomes.
