Understanding Fibroids
Fibroids are among the most prevalent benign tumors affecting the female reproductive system. Approximately one in four women may develop uterine fibroids. Although the exact cause is unknown, they tend to shrink after menopause, suggesting that estrogen levels play a significant role. Fibroids are most common during peri-menopause, the period leading up to menopause, defined by twelve consecutive months without menstruation. Women at higher risk often belong to the childbearing age group, are African-American, are overweight, or have not had children.
Many women may have fibroids without experiencing symptoms. However, some can suffer from prolonged pelvic pressure and pain. Additional symptoms might include frequent urination, excessive vaginal discharge, and heavy bleeding. Diagnosis typically involves an ultrasound to confirm the presence of fibroids.
While treatment isn’t always necessary, some women choose intervention due to disruptive symptoms. Options include medication for pain relief or to reduce the size of fibroids, surgical procedures such as hysterectomy, myomectomy, and endometrial ablation, and uterine fibroid embolization (UFE).
Beyond medical treatments, lifestyle changes can also help manage fibroids. Regular exercise promotes consistent ovulation, potentially mitigating fibroid issues. Dietary changes, such as reducing pork and red meat intake or adopting a vegetarian diet, have been associated with fibroid reduction by some women.
It’s important to note that fibroids are non-cancerous and cannot spread, so there’s no need for undue concern.
