You obviously can’t seek medical treatment for a problem you don’t even know exists. But, if you display certain symptoms, you should consult your personal health care practitioner.
Symptoms that may be indicative of the existence of fibroids include pelvic pain that just won’t leave, heavy or painful periods, as well as spotting or bleeding between periods. If you have trouble emptying your bladder or if you’re constipated, you may have fibroids. Also pain during sex may indicate the presence of fibroids in or around your uterus.
