ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for treating or preventing leiomyomas by administration of diindolylmethane and diindolylmethane-related indoles. The present invention also relates to compositions and methods for treating or preventing leiomyomas by administration of diindolylmethane in combination with an EGFR antagonist. The methods provide non-invasive treatments for leiomyomas.
