fibroid treatment

 

If you are experiencing changes in menstrual patterns, intense cramps, constipation, and trouble urinating are all possible symptoms of fibroids. Fibroids are common growths in the uterus that are usually benign. They can vary greatly in size, from pea-sized to five or six pounds. They are most often found in women between the ages of 30 and 40, but can develop in women of all ages. Not all fibroids cause these symptoms and those that do not should be left alone and will eventually go away.

How Your Gynecologist Can Help

Don’t let fibroids continue to cause you pain or discomfort. With a myomectomy, Dr. Ayalon can remove uterine fibroids most times without harming the uterus. This allows the patient to preserve her ability to have children in the future. Dr. Ayalon is an expert in identifying and treating fibroids through pelvic exams, ultrasounds, and other gynecologic tests. If you think you have fibroids or you experience any of the symptoms associated with uterine fibroids, make an appointment to see Dr. Ayalon as soon as possible.
