Uterine Fibroids

Uterine fibroids (also called leiomyomas or myomas) are non-cancerous growths that develop in or on the uterus. They are one of the most common gynecological conditions, affecting many women during their reproductive years. Fibroids vary in size—from very small (undetectable without imaging) to large masses that can distort the uterus.

While fibroids are usually benign, they may cause significant symptoms that affect quality of life, fertility, and overall health. With proper diagnosis and treatment, symptoms can be managed effectively, and complications can be prevented.

Signs & Symptoms of Uterine Fibroids

Not all women experience symptoms, but when they do, common signs include:

  • Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
  • Pelvic pain or pressure
  • Frequent urination or difficulty emptying the bladder
  • Constipation or rectal pressure
  • Pain during intercourse
  • Backache or leg pain
  • Abdominal swelling or enlargement
  • Difficulty conceiving or recurrent miscarriages in some cases.

    • Diagnostic Procedures

    Dr. Anuradha Sarkhel uses a step-by-step, compassionate approach to diagnose fibroids and assess their impact:

  • Detailed Medical & Menstrual History Understanding symptoms, cycle changes, and reproductive concerns.
  • Pelvic Examination: To detect enlarged uterus or masses.
  • Ultrasound Scan (Abdominal/Pelvic): First-line imaging to visualize fibroids.
  • MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging): For detailed mapping of fibroid size, number, and location.
  • Hysteroscopy: Direct visualization of the uterine cavity to detect submucosal fibroids.
