Your myomectomy is on the calendar. Between now and the operating room there are weeks of waiting — and most women want to use them for something. The honest answer to “what should I take before fibroid surgery?” has two halves: what your surgeon needs from you (including which supplements to stop), and the daily AGO combo women in the US and Canada use to support everyday uterine, cycle and egg-cell wellness around that surgery.

What a myomectomy does — and what supplements do not
Let us be exact, because this is where bad advice lives. A myomectomy is surgery that removes fibroids from the uterine wall while leaving the uterus in place. It is a structural procedure, done by a surgeon.
No dietary supplement shrinks, dissolves or removes a fibroid, replaces surgery, changes how your operation goes, or prevents fibroids from coming back. Anything sold to you on that promise is not being straight with you. Fibroids are tissue — see the four fibroid types and fibroids and getting pregnant for the background.
What AGO products are: dietary supplements designed to support everyday uterine, cycle and egg-cell wellness — the daily-nutrition side of the plan, running alongside your surgeon’s care and never in place of it. No outcome is guaranteed, including pregnancy.
The pre-op rule most people miss: your surgeon may ask you to stop
This matters more than any product page. Surgical teams routinely ask patients to pause herbal supplements and some vitamins one to two weeks before an operation, because certain botanicals can interact with anaesthesia or with bleeding and clotting. That instruction comes from your surgeon, not from us, and it overrides everything below.
- Bring the actual bottles (or photos of the labels) to your pre-op appointment.
- Ask directly: “Which of these do I stop, and how many days before?”
- Ask about iron. If heavy periods have left you anaemic, your team may want that addressed before surgery — see fibroids and anaemia.
- Do not restart anything after surgery until you have post-op clearance.
The AGO combo women use in the run-up to fibroid surgery
Cleared by your surgeon, this is the routine most pre-myomectomy customers settle on:
- AGO Tumor — the uterine-wellness product in the range, designed to support everyday uterine tissue and cycle comfort. See AGO Tumor explained.
- AGO Mom — the preconception base, designed to support egg-cell wellness and healthy ovulation patterns, so the 90-day window is already running when your surgeon clears you to try. See AGO Mom for egg quality.
- AGO Eva — designed to support hormonal balance and cycle comfort, the usual partner to Mom. Compare in Mom vs Eva.
- Mẫu Nguyệt Đà — the herbal cycle option many women with heavy periods add; see heavy periods with fibroids.
- AGO Dad for him — his 90-day sperm window should start during your waiting period, not after it.

Building the 90 days on the other side of surgery
Most surgeons give a recovery window before you are cleared to try again, and many couples treat that window as preparation rather than dead time. Once you have written post-op clearance:
- Restart only what your surgeon approves, and tell the clinic exactly what you are taking.
- Think in 90 days. Egg cells and sperm cells both mature over roughly three months, so his side and yours run the same clock — see how long to take them.
- Read the follow-up guide: the AGO combo after myomectomy covers the post-surgery routine in detail.
- If IVF is in the plan, line the window up with the IVF/IUI prep couple kit.

AGO products are dietary supplements designed to support wellness. They do not shrink, dissolve or remove fibroids, do not replace surgery or medical care, do not change surgical outcomes or prevent fibroid recurrence, and do not guarantee any outcome. Always follow your surgeon’s pre-operative instructions. The easiest next step is a free, no-pressure consultation with our care team.
