Is Fibroids and bulky uterus common during perimenopause?
Fibroids, also known as uterine fibroids or leiomyomas, are benign growths in the uterus that mostly develop during a woman's reproductive years.1
However, they can also occur in perimenopausal women and tend to go away on their own during menopause. During perimenopause, fluctuations in reproductive hormones can lead to fibroid growth.2
Although fibroids are often asymptomatic, they can cause symptoms such as heavy or irregular menstrual bleeding, pelvic pressure or pain, and urinary problems.The severity of symptoms depends on the location and size of the fibroids.3
Fibroids can affect women at any age and their occurance cannot be predicted.4 Nevertheless, the same is not true in the case of menopause as you can determine the possible time of your FMP (final menstruation period). How you may ask? With the help of LifeCell’s at-home Perimenopause Test Kit!
