FIBROIDS
Uterine myomas, also known as fibroids, are benign tumors that develop in the uterus of women. These growths can vary in size and location, and are often associated with menstrual problems such as heavy periods, as well as compression or bulging of the abdomen.
Diagnosis
To diagnose uterine fibroids, ultrasound is used, a fundamental tool that allows us to accurately visualize the presence, size and location of fibroids in the uterus. In addition, our specialized medical team performs a detailed clinical evaluation to fully understand each patient's situation.
Gravity and benign nature
It is important to note that uterine fibroids are almost always benign, meaning they rarely pose a health risk. However, they can cause bothersome symptoms and affect a woman's quality of life.
Prevention
Although they cannot be prevented, fibroids affect approximately 30% of women at some point in their lives. Therefore, it is crucial to be aware of the symptoms and seek medical attention if you experience menstrual problems, pelvic pain or changes in your abdomen.
