Fibroids treatment<\/a> is one of the most common concerns among women visiting a
gynecologist today. Uterine fibroids are frequently detected during routine ultrasounds or when women experience heavy periods, pelvic pain, or difficulty conceiving. Although the diagnosis can sound alarming, fibroids are usually non-cancerous and manageable with the right medical guidance. According to Dr Shelly Singh, timely evaluation plays a key role in choosing the most appropriate treatment approach. In her 25+ years of clinical experience, Dr Shelly Singh has seen that many women worry unnecessarily about surgery. The fact is that not all fibroids require treatment, and management depends entirely on symptoms, size, and future pregnancy plans.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Uterine fibroids are benign growths that develop from the muscular layer of the uterus. They may remain small and
symptom-free or grow large enough to cause discomfort. Hormonal factors, especially estrogen, influence their growth.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Based on location, fibroids are classified as:
\u25cf Intramural fibroids \u2013 located within the uterine wall
\u25cf Submucosal fibroids \u2013 growing into the uterine cavity
\u25cf Subserosal fibroids \u2013 present on the outer surface of the uterus
Understanding the type of fibroid helps in deciding the right fibroids treatment plan.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Many women with fibroids have no symptoms at all. When symptoms do occur, they
commonly include:
\u25cf Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
\u25cf Painful periods
\u25cf Pelvic pain or pressure
\u25cf Frequent urination
\u25cf Lower back pain
\u25cf Difficulty conceiving
If these fibroids symptoms begin to affect daily life or cause anemia, medical consultation becomes necessary.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Fibroids diagnosis is usually made through a pelvic examination and ultrasound. Ultrasound helps determine the size, number, and location of fibroids. In certain cases, additional imaging such as MRI may be advised for detailed assessment. Early diagnosis allows better planning and often prevents complications.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Surgery is advised when fibroids cause severe symptoms or fertility issues.
Common procedures include:
\u25cf Myomectomy, which removes fibroids while preserving the uterus
\u25cf Hysterectomy, recommended only when other treatments are unsuitable and when
family is complete
As explained by Dr Shelly Singh<\/a>, treatment decisions are always individualized and
discussed in detail with the patient.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
