About Fibroids
Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths that develop in or on the uterus. While many women have fibroids without symptoms, others experience heavy bleeding, pelvic pain, and pressure. Garden OB/GYN offers comprehensive fibroid care from diagnosis through treatment, with options ranging from monitoring and medication to minimally invasive surgical procedures.
What to Expect
Fibroids are typically discovered during a pelvic exam or ultrasound. Your provider will assess the size, number, and location of your fibroids and discuss how they're affecting your symptoms and quality of life. Treatment options include watchful waiting for small, asymptomatic fibroids, hormonal medications to manage bleeding, and surgical options such as myomectomy (fibroid removal) or hysterectomy when needed.
Who Is It For
Women experiencing heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain or pressure, frequent urination, or difficulty conceiving that may be related to fibroids. Fibroids are most common in women ages 30-50.

Fibroids — Common Questions
Are fibroids cancerous?
Uterine fibroids are almost always benign (non-cancerous). Cancerous fibroids are extremely rare, occurring in less than 1 in 1,000 cases.
Do all fibroids need treatment?
No. Small fibroids that aren't causing symptoms can be monitored with regular checkups. Treatment is recommended when fibroids cause pain, heavy bleeding, or fertility issues.
Can I keep my uterus?
Yes. Myomectomy removes fibroids while preserving the uterus and is often recommended for women who want to maintain fertility. Hysterectomy is considered only when other options aren't appropriate.
Will fibroids come back after treatment?
Fibroids can recur after myomectomy. Your provider will discuss long-term management strategies to reduce the chance of recurrence.
