Leiomyomas also known as fibroids are benign growths (non-cancerous) that occur in the uterus (womb). They are a very common finding, and while most do not cause symptoms, they can be a cause of pelvic pain, and heavy menstrual bleeding in reproductive aged women. The exact cause for them is unknown, but risk factors include a positive family history of fibroids, obesity, or early onset of puberty
Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:
Treatments include medication to manage symptoms, and possibly shrink the fibroids. In some cases surgical removal of the fibroid or uterus is required.

This symptom checker site is a great resource to either get an idea of what is happening inside your body or even get a second opinion without incurring another huge bill. It also provides a way to connect with a professional if needed. I really enjoy this site.

I liked it better than Mayo. It lets you give more in-depth information about the symptoms you have.

I always like coming to Ubie when I have a multi-symptom problem. I have a hard time recognizing symptoms sometimes, and Ubie asks questions that help include them.

Ubie symptom checker hit the spot right away. While answering the simple questions, I'm impressed with how there are multiples to choose from, and most of them relate to what you are looking for to get a diagnosis. This app has treated me multiple times—an A++++.
