| This is a condition that affects 80% of women, who suffer silently for too long before having to make too many visits to the GP before referral for diagnosis.
I have worked in clinical trials for 4yrs and feel that for such a common condition affecting so many women, the government should make it a priority area to receive funding for clinical research into earlier detection and non-invasive treatments. It is quite shocking that we still don't know what causes fibroids or is it just that not enough researchers have attempted to find out why. |

| I have had fibroids for over 8 years
now. Due to my age (45) all i get told
is that im nearer to menapause age &
that they will cure themselves ,all my
symptoms seem to get fobbed off
i have been prescribed various
tablets over the years which only
work for a short time, the result is
allways the same ..heavy bleeding ,
pressure pains in pelvic area &
tiredness, have yet to be reffered to

| I have recently been diagnosed with
fibroids and was surprised to learn
how little was known, comparatively,
about what appears to be such a
common female condition and its
appropriate treatment. More research
needs to be carried out so that a
better understanding is gained of
what causes fibriods, if and how they
can be prevented and if not, how they
can be more effectively and easily be
treated. |

| This is a horrible painful
condition, for which women need
more research and help to manage
and understand this condition |

| Please urgently conduct research into the causes and cures for fibroids, I have seen first hand how these can cause much disruption to the lives of married couples |
