| I was diagnosed with fibroids during
routine ultrasounds and although
they were never that much of a
problem, when I became pregnant
things changed. I experienced
bleeding during the first trimester of
my pregnancy and pain in the
location fo the fibroids, but doctors
dismissed that these symptoms were
related to the fibroids and the
midwifes did not really give me
advice or note that fibroids might
interfere with delivery and did not
schedule ultrasounds to check the
growth of the fibroids. In the end We
moved overseas and I was placed in
the care of a gynacologist who as
part of standard practice did an
ultrasound at 32 weeks and noted
that the fibroids had doubled in size,
were impacting on my babies head,
was partally blocking the birth canal
and placed in such a way that a c-
section delivery was very dangerous.
As a result, she monitored the size of
the baby and I was induced at 39
weeks to make sure the baby was
small enough to give me the best
chance of a natural delivery avoiding
a c-section. I do not believe in the UK
they would have treated my fibroids
in such a way and I would not have
had special interventions to make
sure the risks were lowered. |

| Fibroids should be a routine part of
any prepregnancy or early pregnancy
consultation to help women
understand their own fertility and
understand the possible outcomes
early! |

| I've been diagnosed with a large fibroid around 12 cm, I'm only 30, I want to have children. My periods are extremely heavy, which has resulted me on anaemia. I have not been given options by the gyn that I've been seen for the last year, only scans and monitoring, on my last consultation I was told the operation was risky so I could lose my womb. I have tried several herbal treatments but they don't seemed to make much difference, so the fibroid is still there and I can probably just carry on growing. I just wish more research is done into fibroids that help understanding them better and possibly find a cure or not such an invasive treatmet that threat womens bodies so badly. |

| I have suffered from repeated fibroids and found that there are very few non-invasive treatment options available. This is a very common condition and the impact on the lives of women who suffer from fibroids is massive so I would urge that funding into research is given a priority. |
