Could Your Menstrual Flow Be Warning You About Fibroids?
Many women ignore changes in their menstrual cycle, thinking it is normal stress or hormonal imbalance. However, heavy bleeding, painful cramps, and prolonged periods may be signs that fibroid tumors are growing in the womb.
What Are Fibroids?
Fibroids are non-cancerous growths that develop in or around the uterus. They can vary in size and may affect a womanβs menstrual flow, fertility, comfort, and overall health. While some women may not notice symptoms at first, others experience severe discomfort that affects daily life.
