How do you know you have fibroids?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
"fibroids": Uterine "fibroids" are usually benign smooth muscle tumors, and can be detected by a pelvic exam manually or more precisely with a pelvic ultrasound. "Fibroids" can cause irregular bleeding, pelvic pain, infertility if enlarged, but in early stages, surgery is not always required or recommended.
