Happy Women's Health Month! Conversations around health are usually swept aside until they cannot be ignored. At Fibroid Fighters, we strive to continue the conversation around fibroids (and women's health) each and everyday.

Women are really out here getting told “bad cramps are normal” while bleeding through everything, living on heating pads, and dragging themselves through the day. That’s not “just part of being a woman.” #FibroidFighters

Fibroids are non-cancerous growths of the uterus that develop from uterine muscle cells. They are the most common tumors in women of reproductive age and are strongly influenced by female hormones like Estrogen and Progesterone. They differ in size, number and location, which explains why some women have no symptoms, while others experience heavy periods, pelvic pain, fertility challenges or pregnancy complications. Types & Location of Fibroids 1. Submucosal Fibroids– grow inside the uterus 2. Intramural Fibroids– grow within the uterine wall 3. Subserosal Fibroids– grow on the outside of the uterus 3. Pedunculated Fibroids – attached by a stalk 4. Cervical Fibroids– grow near the cervix Not all fibroids affect Fertility 👉 Fibroids inside the uterine cavity (especially submucosal) can block implantation and increase miscarriage risk. 👉 Fibroids outside the uterus usually affect comfort more than conception.

Yesterday was one month of me getting an open myomectomy to remove 18 fibroids out me. I’m so grateful for all those that helped make it possible.
