WHAT ARE FIBROIDS?

Fibroids are tumors made of smooth muscle cells and fibrous connective tissue. They develop in the uterus. It is estimated that 70 to 80 percent of women will develop fibroids in their lifetime however, not everyone will develop symptoms or require treatment.

The most important characteristic of fibroids is that they’re almost always benign, or noncancerous. That said, some fibroids begin as cancer but benign fibroids can’t become cancer.

Cancerous fibroids are very rare. Because of this fact, it’s reasonable for women without symptoms to opt for observation rather than treatment.

Studies show that fibroids grow at different rates, even when a woman has more than one. They can range from the size of a pea to (occasionally) the size of a watermelon. Even if fibroids grow that large, we offer timely and effective treatment to provide relief.

OTHER FACTS ABOUT FIBROIDS

Other key points about uterine fibroids:

Uterine fibroids are the most common tumor of the reproductive tract.
Women who are nearing menopause are at the greatest risk for fibroids.
Fibroids are most often found during a routine pelvic exam.
Symptoms may include heavy and prolonged periods, bleeding between periods and pelvic pain.

TYPES OF FIBROIDS

Along with the size and number of fibroids, the type can also affect treatment recommendations. The three main types of fibroids include:

Subserosal fibroids: These are the most common fibroids. They can push outside of the uterus into the pelvis. Subserosal fibroids can grow large at times and sometimes have a stalk that attaches to the uterus (pedunculated fibroid).
Intramural fibroids: These fibroids develop in the muscular wall of the uterus.
Submucosal fibroids: These fibroids are uncommon. They can grow into the open space inside the uterus and may also include a stalk.

WHAT CAUSES FIBROIDS?

The cause of uterine fibroids is not known, although studies demonstrate there may be a genetic component. There is no definite external exposure that a woman can have that causes her to develop fibroids.

WHO IS AT RISK FOR UTERINE FIBROIDS?

Various factors can increase the risk of developing fibroids:

Age: Fibroids become more common as women age, especially during their 30s and 40s and up to menopause. After menopause, fibroids are much less likely to form and usually shrink if they’re present.
Family history: Having a family member with fibroids increases your risk. If a woman’s mother had fibroids, her risk of having them is about three times higher than average.
Ethnic origin: African-American women are more likely to develop fibroids than other ethnicities .
Obesity: Women who are overweight are at higher risk for fibroids. For very heavy women, the risk is two to three times greater than average.

WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF UTERINE FIBROIDS?

Most women with fibroids will experience no symptoms at all. However, large or numerous fibroids can cause the following symptoms:

Heavy or prolonged periods
Bleeding between periods
Pelvic pain and pressure
Frequent urination
Low back pain
Pain during intercourse
Difficulty getting pregnant

WHAT ARE THE COMPLICATIONS OF UTERINE FIBROIDS?

It is uncommon for fibroids to cause severe health consequences. However, women can have heavy bleeding that can lead to dangerous anemia, or lack of red blood cells.

Rarely, large fibroids can press on the bladder and the channel (ureter) that sends urine there from the kidney. This pressure can lead to kidney damage. Other complications include infertility and repeated pregnancy loss.
