What Are Fibroids?
Fibroids are non-cancerous growths that develop in or around the uterus, often during the reproductive years. While common, they can vary greatly in size, number, and how they affect each person. Some women experience no symptoms, while others face heavy bleeding, pain, pressure, bloating, or fertility challenges. At MNMC, we understand how disruptive fibroids can be, not just physically, but emotionally too. We’re here to look beyond the surface and support you with a personalised approach that addresses what’s driving their growth and how to ease your symptoms naturally.
Common Signs and Symptoms
- Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
- Pelvic pain or pressure
- Bloating or abdominal fullness
- Frequent urination or difficulty emptying the bladder
- Pain during intercourse
- Fatigue (often due to low iron from heavy periods)
- Fertility issues or difficulty falling pregnant
