What You Need To Know About Fibroids

There are more than 200,000 cases of fibroids diagnosed in the United States among people with uteruses. Fibroids are noncancerous growths that develop in and around the uterus.

There are four different types of fibroids:

• Subserosal: These fibroids are located near the outer layer of the uterus

• Submucosal: These grow towards the internal layer or mucosa of the uterus

• Intramural: These fibroids are located within the uterine muscle.

• Pedunculated: These are a variation of subserosal and submucosal fibroids.

They tend to grow outwards from the uterine wall or inside the uterus itself.

Symptoms may include: heavy menstrual bleeding, prolonged periods, pain in the abdomen, lower back, and pelvis, spotting, and cramping.
