Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths that develop in or on the uterus. They can vary in size and may cause symptoms such as heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, and fertility issues.
The exact cause of fibroids is not known, but they are believed to be linked to genetic factors, hormonal imbalances, and other growth factors. Estrogen and progesterone, the hormones that stimulate the development of the uterine lining during each menstrual cycle, also appear to promote the growth of fibroids.
Common symptoms of fibroids include heavy or prolonged menstrual periods, pelvic pain or pressure, frequent urination, pain during intercourse, and in some cases, fertility problems.
Fibroids are typically diagnosed through imaging tests such as pelvic ultrasound, transvaginal ultrasound, MRI, or through direct visualization using hysteroscopy or laparoscopy.
Treatment options for fibroids include medication management, non-invasive procedures like Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE), and surgical options such as laparoscopic myomectomy, hysteroscopic myomectomy, or, in severe cases, hysterectomy.
Recovery time varies depending on the type of surgery performed. Minimally invasive procedures like laparoscopic or hysteroscopic myomectomy typically have shorter recovery times, often ranging from a few days to a couple of weeks.
