| Fibroids affect so many women and is a recurring illness. Providing funding for research into the cause of fibroids will help to detect the exact cause and apporpriate treatment which will bring much needed relief and better health for affected women. It will also be cost effective and save the NHS millions, and leave women better able to contribute more effectively to the economy |

| I wish there was an organisation composed of all experts called Women First where treating us with respect and creating proper options/researching every angle rather than brutal operations that often create more problems.
I am 59 with ovarian cysts and fibroids.The last recommendation was to have ovaries out and take HRT which obviously feeds the fibroids. This was at the Portland Hospital for Women. |

| More research needed into the root causes of fibroids, so prevention can be better |

| Just had very painful hysterectomy
due to fibroids. Told one was the
size of a 22 week old baby. |

| I was diagnosed with a 5cm fibroid ten years ago and told there was no need to do anything. I am 34 and currently bedridden with a 11cm fibroid that needs to be removed by myomectomy. I am in abject pain, the fibroid is petruding and I cannot work. I feel the 'watch and wait'method is absurd, do we wait until things are this bad? I can't help wondering if they would watch and wait for a benign tumour to get to this size in a man's body. |

| Living with fibroids is not living, its
surviving as best you can. There is so
little information about non-invasive
treatments that often GPs will only
consider surgery. We deserve better.
There should be more awareness in
fibroid research so we can make
informed decisions about our
treatment. |
