Fibroids are usually benign (non-cancerous) tumours that develop in the wall of the uterus (uterus). Fibroids, which are frequently seen in women in reproductive age, usually originate from the uterine muscle tissue. Fibroids can vary in size, number and location; some are very small and do not cause symptoms, while others can reach large sizes and cause various symptoms.
The method of treatment of fibroids varies depending on the number, size, location, symptoms and the woman’s desire to have a child. It can be treated with surgical intervention or minimally invasive methods.
Although fibroids usually do not pose a serious health risk, they can affect quality of life. It is important for women experiencing symptoms to consult a specialist and consider appropriate treatment options.
