About 20-30% of women develop fibroids. By the time women reach age 50, a whopping 80 out of 100 women will develop fibroids. Uterine fibroids or leiomyomas, are growths or tumors made of muscle cells and other tissues that grow within the uterine wall. It can also grow in or outside the uterus. Fibroids are sometimes called tumors, but are mostly benign, or noncancerous. Fibroids can vary in size, which may be small as a pea or as large as a small melon. Many women do not even know they have them.
Women who are in their childbearing age can develop fibroids. It has been shown that black women have a higher risk of developing fibroids. They also tend to have fibroids at a younger age than other ethnic groups. There is a slightly increased risk for women to develop fibroids if they are overweight, however, if you had a child at risk may be reduced.
The fibroids cause no symptoms, and that is why most women do not know they have them. The symptoms can be mild, such as a longer heavy. Fibroids can be large enough to press on the organs, and then may start interfering with your life. Later symptoms may include a period of time that flows and lots of cramps. Sometimes women feel a sensation of fullness in the abdomen. They may have back pain and pain during intercourse. Sometimes you have a need to urinate frequently.
If you have fibroids and get heavy bleeding during your period, then it could cause anemia. The anemia results from lack of iron in the blood. Suffering from anemia also can make you weak and tired. Sometimes fibroids can make it harder for you to be pregnant. It can also cause problems during pregnancy such as miscarriage or premature labor.
Doctors are not sure what causes fibroids. There are some theories, but researchers believe it may be the result of many factors interact. The factors could be hormonal, genetic, environmental or perhaps a combination of three factors. Since we know what causes fibroids, I do not know how to grow or shrink. Most of the time fibroids drop after menopause, but not all the time.
Fibroids are usually diagnosed after taking a history of complaints of the patient and then make a pelvic exam review. A doctor can measure the size of your uterus. They can say they have a uterus the size of a pregnancy of 12 weeks. Ultrasound also can be performed. Some doctors request a CT scan or an MRI. The doctor may also need blood tests performed to check for anemia.
Treatments for fibroids vary. If fibroids are not bothering you, then you do not need any treatment. You be controlled regular visits to see if she had made larger or smaller. If symptoms are bothersome, then you may want to think about surgery. You have time to think about their options because the fibroids grow slowly.
