Fibroid Management
Fibroids are noncancerous growths in or on the uterus that can affect women of reproductive age. They vary in size and number and may cause pain, heavy bleeding, or pressure on other organs. We provide expert evaluation and personalized treatment plans to help manage symptoms, preserve fertility, and improve quality of life.
Fibroids are benign tumors made of muscle and fibrous tissue in the uterus. They can:
- Grow inside the uterine wall (intramural)
- Project into the uterine cavity (submucosal)
- Develop on the outer surface of the uterus (subserosal)
- Heavy or prolonged menstrual periods
- Pelvic pain or pressure
- Frequent urination or difficulty emptying the bladder
- Back or leg pain
- Fertility challenges or complications during pregnancy
Medications:
- Hormonal therapy to control bleeding and reduce size
- Pain management (NSAIDs)
Minimally invasive procedures:
- Myomectomy to remove fibroids while preserving the uterus
- Uterine artery embolization to shrink fibroids
Surgery:
- Hysterectomy for severe cases when other treatments aren’t effective
Early evaluation helps relieve pain, prevent anemia from heavy bleeding, and maintain fertility options. Partnering with specialists ensures the safest, most effective approach tailored to your needs.
