What is Fibroids?

Fibroids are usually benign tumors that form in or around the uterus. These tumors originate from the muscle layer of the uterus and can be of various sizes. Fibroids are usually asymptomatic and are often discovered by chance. However, in certain situations they can cause symptoms.

Symptoms of Fibroids

1. Pain and Pelvic Discomfort: Large fibroids can cause pain and pressure in the pelvic area.
2. Excessive Menstrual Bleeding: Large fibroids can increase the amount and duration of menstrual bleeding.
3. Urinary Problems Large fibroids can cause problems such as frequent urination and difficulty urinating by pressing on the bladder.
4. Pain During Sexual Intercourse: Large fibroids can cause pain during sexual intercourse.

Myoma Diagnosis

Fibroids are diagnosed by gynecological examination and imaging methods. Imaging tests such as ultrasonography, computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are often used.

Fibroid Treatment Methods

1. Observation and Monitoring: Small and asymptomatic fibroids are usually only observed and monitored.
2. Medication Therapy: Hormonal drugs can be used to control pain and bleeding.
3. Myomectomy: Surgical removal of fibroids. This procedure provides fertility protection for young women.
4. Uterine Surgery (Hysterectomy): In women with significant symptoms or large fibroids, a hysterectomy may be considered. This can be a permanent solution for fibroids.
