The reasons most women come to see me, and how I approach them.
Frequently asked questionsThe most common benign tumours of the uterus: often they only need monitoring.
Most fibroids cause no symptoms. When they do (heavy periods, anaemia, pain or pressure), we need to confirm that they are responsible and not another condition alongside them, such as adenomyosis or polyps.
Beyond treating the fibroid, I check related factors such as vitamin D or iron deficiency, and explain every option, from monitoring to surgery.
Not necessarily. Most fibroids cause no symptoms and often they only need monitoring. The options range from monitoring to surgery, and they are chosen according to the symptoms you have, not the finding itself.
That needs confirming. Before assuming the fibroid is responsible, I rule out another condition alongside it, such as adenomyosis or polyps: if the wrong thing is treated, the symptoms stay.
Yes. Beyond the fibroid itself, I check related factors such as iron or vitamin D deficiency, which matter especially when there are heavy periods and anaemia.
