Fibroids aren't cancerous. They disappear at menopause.
It is still unclear as to what causes fibroids, although there have been many speculations on the topic. Researchers believe one or more of the following causes:
* Genetic predisposition: One theory is that some women carry the problem in their Genes and may inherit or be prone to the condition. If your mother or sister had fibroids, you too may be at risk.
* Hormones: Estrogen and Progesterone are hormones that prepare your uterine lining for a pregnancy. It is thought that these hormones cause growth of fibroids.
If you get following symptoms then cosult DOC-
* severe bleeding while menstruating or bleeding between periods,
* menstruating for more number of days,
* pain in the pelvic region,
* frequent urination or involuntary loss of urine,
* constipation,
* backache or pain in the legs and
* tiredness due to the blood loss.
Tell your doctor if you have sudden, unexplained severe vaginal bleeding or sharp pelvic pain. The symptoms that you may experience have chiefly got to do with where the fibroid has grown.
