A member asked:

How do i know i have a fibroid problem? would blood be bright red, would it be light blood flow in b/w cycle? and would this happen suddenly?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Heavy or irregular menses can be suggestive of fibroids. I would have your doctor run an iron panel to see if you are deficient. Also talk to your gyn about possibly getting a pelvic ultrasound which would give some definitive answers.

Hi, could a thin, watery, bright red period be a sign of the return of fibroids? I had a DNC done about 8 yrs ago and they removed quite a few.
