Uterine fibroids, also known as leiomyomas or myomas, are noncancerous growths that develop in the muscular wall of the uterus. They are one of the most common reproductive health issues among women. While fibroids are generally benign (noncancerous), they can cause a range of symptoms and complications.
It's important to consult a healthcare provider if you suspect you have fibroids or are experiencing symptoms. They can help determine the appropriate course of action based on your individual circumstances.
