CONSULT A SPECIALISTUnderstanding Uterine Fibroids
Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths that develop in or around the uterus, most commonly affecting women during their reproductive years. These growths are made of muscle and fibrous tissue and can vary in size from very small to large masses. Fibroids may occur as a single growth or in multiple numbers within the uterus. While some women may not experience symptoms, others may develop heavy menstrual bleeding
, pelvic pressure, or frequent urination. Hormonal factors such as estrogen and progesterone play an important role in their development. Early diagnosis and treatment help reduce symptoms and improve quality of life.
