Fibroids, or uterine leiomyomas, act as benign growths that develop throughout the muscular wall of the uterus. Fibroids appear in different sizes, from minute inaudible nodules to substantial masses that alter the uterus structure. Medical science has not yet determined fibroid origins, yet hormonal shifts mainly affected by estrogen and progesterone help these growths expand. […]
Fibroids are benign growths that occur in or around the uterus. Though they are typically harmless, they can lead to pain, discomfort, and other symptoms that interfere with daily life. If you want to shrink fibroids quickly, there are some natural methods, medical interventions, and changes you can make to your lifestyle. While some fibroids […]

Fibroids are more common than many people realize. Studies suggest that about 40% to 60% of women have fibroids by the age of 35, and up to 80% of women have them by age 50. Despite this, detecting fibroids during pregnancy can be challenging. The natural thickening of the uterine muscles during pregnancy makes distinguishing […]

This blog explores how fibroids can affect your heart, the risks involved, and ways to protect your cardiovascular health. What Are Fibroids and How […]
The uterus is typically around three inches long and resembles the shape of a pear. However, when fibroids develop, they can cause noticeable changes in size and weight.

Sometimes, women’s reproductive health can be a bit of a puzzle, with overlapping symptoms that don’t always tell you what is going on. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and uterine fibroids (or fibroid tumors) are both prime examples of two common conditions.

They vary in size, shape, and location and can cause a variety of uncomfortable symptoms. Fibroids are known to be idiopathic, but studies suggest that hormones such as progesterone and […]
Uterine fibroids are benign tumors that protrude from the smooth muscle cells of the uterine lining. Fibroid is the most common gynecological condition that affects women, specifically during their childbearing years. This condition can cause a set of uncomfortable symptoms such as: Heavy and irregular menstrual bleeding Painful menstruation Back pain Bloating or abdominal swelling […]
A non-common type of benign tumour that develops within or around the uterus is called pedunculated fibroids. The major characteristic differentiating these fibroids from other types of fibroids is their stalk-like structure that helps in their attachment to the uterine wall. Pedunclutaed refers to the fibroid’s attachment with a stem-like structure (peduncle). Types of pedunculated […]
