| For such a common problem more
research and funding is
needed. I suffer with painful
heavy periods due to a fibroid
and wonder if my symptoms will
get worse as I am only 45. 3
of my aunts all had fibroids
and all had to have an
hysterectomy 20 odd years ago.
Please add my name to

| I have had a 6cm fibroid which was diagnosed four years ago, before that I had a smaller one taken out by keyhole in 1997. I cannot believe that we have to have so much surgical intervention for a common but life affecting condition Upon visiting my local hospital, I was advised to have a hystorectomy, as fibroids tend to bleed greatly! I am due another scan soon, but I will not concede to such a drastic intervention... |

| Yes we need more research into this condition. Also greater awareness of the effects of HRT on fibroids. |

| Research into fibroids and
development of treatment options is
essential for better healthcare for
women. I've had unrecognised &
untreated fibroids for over 10 years
resulting in days off sick from work
every month and almost constant
anemia which leaves me exhausted
all the time. The impact on a
womans daily life is huge & the cost
to the economy enormous. Please
campaign for this important health
issue to be taken seriously and raise
awareness of the negative impact
that it has for 1 out of 3 women and
for society as a whole. |

| I have just been diagnosed
with fibroids. I am feeling
pretty scared as I didn't
expect it and don't know
anything much about them. I
have no idea what treatment is
available and what to do. Mine
is large and I wish it had
been detected earlier - I
suspect that treatment options
could be limited because of
its size. More needs to be
known about this condition. |

| Not enough is done to help women with this condition. It effects our lives every month and we are fobbed off with useless pills that make no difference at all and just prolong our suffering. don't we women go through enough??? |

| Recently diagnosed, and told I might
need a hysterectomy, Im reluctant as
it may disappear after the
menopause and I am 52. However
the condition is making my life
wretched. More research please as
there has to be an alternative to
surgery. |
