Uterine fibroids (singular Uterine Fibroma) (leiomyomata, singular leiomyoma) are
benign tumors which grow from the muscle layers of the
uterus. They are the most common
neoplasm in females, and may affect about 25% of white and 50% of black women during the reproductive years. Uterine fibroids often do not require treatment, but when they are problematic, they may be treated surgically or with medication — possible interventions include a
hysterectomy,
hormonal therapy, a
myomectomy, or
uterine artery embolization. Uterine fibroids shrink dramatically in size after a woman passes through menopause.
