Finally women can gain peace of mind, knowing the true information about uterine fibroids.
The fibroids are called benign tumor growing in the uterus. It has the shape of a node. A fibroid is growing very rapidly, so the women may even be rounded stomach, if the tumor will develop without symptoms and not to make any markings.
Treatment of uterine fibroid in modern conditions significantly transformed. 10 years ago the tumor was removed and in some cases along with the uterus and appendages, gynecologists are not in a hurry to schedule the surgery. But women take care of their health, afraid of the diagnosis of “fibroids”. The fact is that in society, there is a lot of false data about this disease, introducing all the confusion.
Doctors refuted the myths about fibroids:
1. Fibroids — a lot of slender women. Strange, unconfirmed facts, myth. But obesity, by contrast, is a provoking factor in the development of benign tumors in the uterus and this was accepted by every doctor. Plus, the added risk of late diagnosis of fibroids, as due to the completeness of the woman, and she might not notice that she had a rounded belly.
2. To blame the pill. Hormones can affect the female reproductive function, but not on the health of the uterus. Doctors say that the “female” hormone progesterone, on the contrary, prevents the development of fibroids. It turns out that hormonal contraceptives benefit women’s health by provoking the production of hormones.
3. Crashing in the menstrual cycle is characteristic of fibroids. Gynecologists to this day have not found confirmation of this assertion. So to believe in him is not necessary, although, if a woman for whatever reason, disrupted menstrual cycle, then a trip to the gynecologist, it is better not to procrastinate.
4. The fibroids are removed along with the uterus, so in the future have children the woman can’t. It is also a myth, because now doctors use advanced techniques for removing such tumors, not cutting them with the uterus and appendages.
5. Fibroids the precursor of cancer of the uterus or ovaries. This public opinion cannot be called a myth, but reality it is irrelevant. Fibroids in 0,23% of 100 could trigger the development of cancer cells in the uterus. The main thing — time to consult a doctor and follow his recommendations.
