Fibroids are muscular tumors that grow in the wall of the uterus (womb), originate from the smooth muscle layer (myometrium) of the uterus. This is commonly found in women during the middle and later reproductive periods. In most cases Symptoms of fibroid tumor are unnoticeable. However, a fibroid symptom depends on the type, their size, location within the uterus, and how close they are to the adjacent pelvic organs. It can cause infertility which is biggest disadvantage. Fibroids may be single or multiple.
An average age for women, suffering with uterine fibroid is 30 – 40 years. Different types of fibroids are associated with different signs. The cause of fibroid is unknown but may occur due to genetic factors. All uterine fibroids are the same; they are categorized according to their location:
- Submucosal fibroids are present just beneath the lining of uterus.
- Intramural fibroids lie between the muscles of the uterine wall.
- Subserol fibroids are seen from uterine walls to pelvic cavity.
- Pedunculated fibroids are joined to the uterine wall.
