What Are Uterine Fibroids?
Uterine fibroids (also known as leiomyomas or myomas) are non-cancerous growths that develop from the muscle tissue of the uterus. They can grow in different locations: inside the uterine cavity (submucosal), within the uterine wall (intramural), or on the outer surface (subserosal).
When a woman has several of these growths, we refer to it as having “Uterine fibroids.” The challenge with Uterine fibroids is not just their number, but their combined size, location, and the symptoms they cause.
A uterus with many fibroids can become enlarged and distorted, leading to significant health issues.

Diagnosing Uterine Fibroids Accurately
While you may know you have fibroids, a detailed diagnosis is crucial for planning the right treatment. We need to map out the exact size, number, and location of each one.
- High-Resolution Ultrasound:
A transvaginal ultrasound is the primary tool. It gives us a good initial assessment of the uterus and the fibroids within it. - Saline Infusion Sonography (SIS):
If we need a clearer view of the uterine cavity, we can infuse a small amount of saline, which helps outline any fibroids that are bulging into the space. - MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging):
This is the gold standard for mapping Uterine fibroids. An MRI provides a detailed, 3D-like roadmap of the uterus, helping us distinguish fibroids from other conditions like adenomyosis and plan a precise surgical approach.
Personalised Treatment Options for Uterine Fibroids
The right treatment depends on your symptoms, age, and desire for future pregnancy.
Medical Management
For women with milder symptoms or those nearing menopause, medication can be an option.
- Hormonal Therapies: Birth control pills or devices like the Mirena IUD can help control heavy bleeding but do not shrink the fibroids.
- GnRH Agonists: These injections can temporarily shrink fibroids by inducing a menopause-like state. They are often used for a few months before surgery to make the procedure easier and reduce blood loss.
Uterus-Sparing Surgical Options
For women who want to preserve their fertility or simply keep their uterus, surgery to remove the fibroids is the most effective solution. This procedure is called a myomectomy.
- Hysteroscopic Myomectomy: If the fibroids are primarily inside the uterine cavity (submucosal), we can remove them using a hysteroscope passed through the cervix. There are no abdominal cuts.
- Laparoscopic Myomectomy: This is the preferred “keyhole” approach for fibroids within the wall or on the outer surface. We make a few tiny incisions to insert a camera and instruments. This technique is highly skilled and allows for precise removal of Uterine fibroids with minimal blood loss and fast recovery.
- Open Myomectomy: For very large or numerous fibroids, a traditional open incision (like a C-section cut) may be the safest approach.
Hysterectomy
For women who have completed their families and have severe, life-disrupting symptoms, removing the uterus (hysterectomy) is the only definitive cure. This is a final option and is only considered after a thorough discussion.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. Can fibroids turn into cancer?
Fibroids are almost always benign (non-cancerous). The chance of a fibroid being cancerous is less than 1 in 1000. This is not a primary concern when managing typical fibroids.
2. Will my fibroids grow back after a myomectomy?
A myomectomy removes existing fibroids, but it cannot prevent new ones from growing in the future. However, for most women, the surgery provides many years of symptom relief.
3. How long is the recovery after a myomectomy?
For a laparoscopic myomectomy, you can expect to be back to most normal activities within 1-2 weeks. For an open myomectomy, the recovery period is longer, typically around 4-6 weeks.
4. Can I have a normal delivery after a myomectomy?
This depends on how deep the fibroids were within the uterine wall. For many, a vaginal delivery is possible. However, if the uterine wall required extensive repair, we may recommend a planned Caesarean section to ensure the safety of you and your baby during labour.
5. Is there a non-surgical way to get rid of Uterine fibroids?
Currently, there is no medication that can permanently eliminate Uterine fibroids. Surgery (myomectomy) remains the most effective treatment for removing them and providing long-term symptom relief.
