I’m currently exclusively breastfeeding and trying to find a safe way to improve my cervical health. I’m waiting on the results of a recent pap, and my healthcare provider said my cervix looked red and inflamed. I’ve had low-grade abnormal paps for a few years and was hoping things would improve after giving birth 9 months ago. I’ve been under a HUGE amount of stress since having the baby due to relationship challenges. My diet is pretty good/nutrient-dense - daily local/pastured eggs, butter, cheese, yogurt, beef, bacon, shrimp, oysters, sardines, carrot salad, coconut oil, OJ, milk, honey, fruit, bone broth, chamomile tea, green tea, coffee, Haagen Daz…most of it from our farmers market. I read Georgi’s post on cervical cancer and estrogen/histamine dominance. I saw that apigenin is helpful for improving both, so I’m drinking chamomile tea for that. What I’m stuck on is whether or not I can take any supplements safely to lower estrogen while breastfeeding? Could I take Dim-Plus or progesterone and not interfere with my milk supply? Should I focus on carrot salad, oysters, liver, and tea? I’m hoping my results aren’t terrible, but I want to get a head start on treatment. I think my stress is the biggest factor and I’m working on reducing it as much as possible.
