Fibromyoma
The fibromyoma, also called a uterine myoma or fibroid, is a benign tumor that forms in the muscle of the uterus. It is very common in women of reproductive age and, in many cases, causes no symptoms.
How it may show up: heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding, a sensation of pressure in the pelvis, pain, or an increase in abdominal volume.
Factors that play a role: hormonal changes and family history, among others.
When to have it checked? If you notice very heavy periods or pelvic discomfort, it is worth having it evaluated. The gynecologist or the obstetrician-gynecologist are the professionals who assess the fibromyoma and provide follow-up. Discussing these changes with a specialist makes it possible to clarify the origin and the available options.
