Is There Any Way To Increase The Gallbladder Ejection Fraction?

I have a gallbladder ejection fraction of less than 10%. I have sludge, but no stones. There are two gallbladder polyps: 0.6mm and 0.3mm. I also experience intermittent pain and nausea.

I prefer to keep my gallbladder if possible. Is there any way to increase the ejection fraction?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi and welcome to HCM. Thanks for the query.
There is no natural way to increase ejection fraction and ain these cases cholecystectomy is indicated. This is simple and effici8ent procedure today so I recommend it since pain will recur all your life and it is not likely that it will resolve on its own.
Wish you good health. Regards
