Uterine Fibroids also called uterine polyps or myomas are the non-cancerous tumors which grow in the walls of women’s uterus. These fibroids usually vary in sizes and women can have a single fibroid or in clusters. Small or tiny tumors may do not cause any symptoms, whereas if these fibroids expand, they increase pressure on the bladder and leads to symptoms like pain and abnormal menstruation.
