What are Uterine Fibroids?

Uterine fibroids are noncancerous growths that develop in or around the uterus. They vary in size and may cause no symptoms in some women, while in others they can lead to heavy periods, pelvic pain, and fertility problems.

Symptoms of Uterine Fibroids

  • Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding

  • Pelvic pressure or pain

  • Frequent urination or difficulty emptying the bladder

  • Constipation or backache

  • Difficulty conceiving or pregnancy complications

Causes & Risk Factors

  • Hormonal imbalance (estrogen and progesterone influence fibroid growth)

  • Family history of fibroids

  • Obesity and lifestyle factors

  • Early onset of menstruation

When to See a Doctor?

Consult a gynaecologist if you experience:

  • Heavy bleeding that interferes with daily activities

  • Persistent pelvic pain or pressure

  • Difficulty conceiving due to fibroids

  • Rapidly enlarging abdomen or growth of fibroids

Early evaluation helps in preventing complications and choosing the right treatment plan.
