Symptoms Of Fibroids And How To Diagnose Them
The basic problem with the symptoms of fibroids is that, not all women have them. Usually the growths in the uterus that are quite small in size show no symptoms. In many cases they are discovered on a normal gynecological examination or antenatal care. Though as many as 50% of all women who are about to reach menopause or are a few years from this have this medical condition, surprisingly, many of them do not show any symptoms at all. However this is not good news at all because without any symptoms, the treatment cannot start. So this means that if you have uterine fibroids, it is probably better for you if the symptoms are visible. Remember, fibroids can cause some complications in some cases, and thus an early detection is always better. Some serious complications include infertility and cancer in the uterus (though quite rare).
Since so many women have fibroids in the uterus and so many of them show no symptoms at all, it is advisable to get a test done from time to time. An early detection would lead to an early treatment and you can thus avoid the complications. It is better to remain safe than be sorry later.
Here Are Some of the Symptoms of Fibroids
Remember, as many as 50% of all women develop fibroids in the uterus and so chances are, you might also have them. So it is better that you know what the symptoms are. If you are aware of the symptoms, you will be able to easily detect them, and when you do, you can go and meet your doctor who will then ask for some tests for a confirmation before the treatment can begin.
Some of the symptoms of fibroids include:
Heavier periods and bleeding in between periods: This can be a sure sign of fibroids in the uterus. But the bleeding can happen because of other reasons as well and so you need to be certain that this is due to your fibroids. But if it because of the fibroids, it is probably because of the fact that the number of blood vessels within your uterus has increased. Sometimes however, the bleeding can even be less or erratic – in all those cases where fibroids has congested the blood vessels in the uterus.
Pain in the abdomen: One in every three women who have fibroids in the uterus feel some pain in the abdomen and in many of them, the pain is quite acute. The degree of pain depends on the number of growths, the location and their size. If the fibroids are quite large, they can put pressure on the surrounding organs and can also disrupt the blood supply, thus causing the pain.
Problems in urination: Often fibroids put additional pressure on the bladder and because of this, the woman may feel an urgency to urinate, and that too more frequently.
Bloating: When these growths start to grow, it usually becomes noticeable from the outside. However, the abdomen bloating is not dangerous. But they can still cause a lot of discomfort and embarrassment. Sudden bloating or fullness can be a sign of fibroids.
Fertility problems: In some cases at least, the sperm’s passage to the fallopian tubes can get blocked due to the location of fibroid. Fertility issues can also arise if the growth is under the lining of the womb. And in a few other cases, miscarriages too have been reported because of fibroids. Because of all this, infertility is also a symptom of uterine fibroids.
Eradicating the Symptoms
Never try to get rid of the symptoms of fibroids, a common mistake of conventional remedies. Instead try to eradicate the root factors because of which the growths happen. Once these factors are gone, the symptoms go away on their own. This is the exact approach of holistic remedies and it is because of this that these remedies have been so successful in the treatment of fibroids.
