Fibroids: Symptoms and Treatment Options
Learn about uterine fibroids, common symptoms, and treatment options including minimally invasive gynecologic surgery in Libertyville, IL.
Uterine fibroids are common noncancerous growths that can cause heavy bleeding, pelvic pressure, pain, frequent urination, or fertility concerns. Many women have fibroids with few symptoms; others need treatment.
Diagnosis often includes pelvic exam and ultrasound. Treatment depends on size, location, symptoms, and pregnancy goals — from observation and medication to procedures or surgery.
When surgery is appropriate, minimally invasive approaches may shorten recovery for selected patients. Discuss options with an experienced gynecologic surgeon familiar with your goals.
