FAQ
How does 2-Amino-3-(1h-Indol-3-Yl)-Propan-1-Ol work for fibroids?
2-Amino-3-(1h-Indol-3-Yl)-Propan-1-Ol is prescribed to reduce the size of the fibroids before the surgery. The female hormone progesterone is thought to play a role in the development of fibroids. 2-Amino-3-(1h-Indol-3-Yl)-Propan-1-Ol works by blocking the effects of progesterone. This stops the fibroids from growing and they shrink in size.
