Unfortunately, the appearance of a benign tumor of the uterus today can be found in almost every second woman of reproductive age, and most often fibroids can be treated with medication in the early stages. However, the symptoms of fibroids turn out to be too insidious and invisible at the initial stages of development, respectively, it is not always possible to detect it.
In most cases, it is not possible to find out about the presence of neoplasms in the uterus at all, since the woman does not feel any signs of ailment or discomfort at all. The first symptoms of uterine fibroids can be found already in the later stages of tumor formation, when the disease can only be cured with the help of surgery.
Speaking about the first signs of the presence of a neoplasm, it is necessary to highlight, first of all, uterine bleeding, the nature of which at first may seem unknown. Symptoms of fibroids may include too heavy menstruation, which at the same timewill be longer than usual. This phenomenon is called menorrhagia, which is a mandatory motivation to start a mandatory examination for the presence of fibroids. In essence, menorrhagia is considered a clear sign that the uterus as an organ cannot function normally, and tumors or growths can interfere with this.
Further, metrorrhagia may occur, which is bloody discharge from the vagina in the middle of the cycle, when it should not be.
Speaking about what symptoms of uterine fibroids are still, it is worth noting also cyclic pains in the lower abdomen. It is worth considering that the pain syndrome in this case will differ significantly from the usual pulling sensations during menstruation, not only in its quality, but also in intensity. Most often, signs of a benign tumor are accompanied by pain in the lumbar region and on the sides, where the ovaries are supposedly located. The larger the size of the fibroid, the more acute the pain, and in the case of the last stage of fibroid formation, when it comes to an almost complete violation of blood circulation, the pain can be unbearable.
Treatment of a tumor at the last stage, when there is a violation of blood circulation, is carried out directly with the help of surgery. To prevent this, you should be aware of what causes uterine fibroids symptoms. Photos in special literature will allow you to get a rough idea of how it looks, thereyou will also find a description of the sensations that a woman can experience with a tumor in the uterus.
It is worth noting one more noteworthy moment associated with neoplasms of any organ: in this case, neighboring organs also begin to suffer from a tumor. Accordingly, the symptoms of uterine fibroids may also appear in adjacent organs, for example, discomfort may appear in the bladder and intestines.
