What are Uterine Fibroids?

Uterine fibroids, also known as myomas, are benign growths that form in or around the uterus from its muscular tissue. These growths can vary widely in size, from barely detectable to as large as a melon. Often asymptomatic and requiring no immediate intervention, fibroids may still cause symptoms depending on their size, number, and location.

Signs and Symptoms of Uterine Fibroids

While many women with fibroids experience no symptoms, others may notice the following:

  • Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
  • Bleeding between periods
  • Backache or pelvic pain
  • Menstrual cramps or painful intercourse
  • Increased need to urinate or constipation

In rare cases, fibroids can contribute to infertility and may complicate pregnancy and labor.

Causes of Uterine Fibroids

The exact cause of uterine fibroids remains unclear, though they are closely associated with the hormone estrogen. Fibroids typically grow during a woman’s reproductive years and tend to shrink after menopause, when estrogen levels naturally decline.

Complications of Uterine Fibroids

While generally benign, uterine fibroids may cause complications that affect reproductive and overall health, such as:

  • Infertility: Large fibroids can interfere with fertility by blocking fallopian tubes or affecting the implantation of a fertilized egg.
  • Menstrual Problems: Heavy bleeding, fatigue, and anemia can result from fibroids causing excessive menstrual flow.
  • Pelvic Discomfort: Fibroids pressing on nearby organs can cause discomfort or pressure.
  • Pregnancy Complications: Fibroids can increase the likelihood of C-sections, breech births, and preterm delivery.
  • Miscarriage: Fibroids may, in rare cases, increase miscarriage risk if they disrupt the uterine structure.

Conventional Treatment for Uterine Fibroids

Modern medical treatments include surgical options like myomectomy (removal of fibroids) or hysterectomy (removal of the uterus), each carrying its own risks. Many women seek alternatives such as homeopathic treatments, which aim to address fibroids more holistically.
