Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths in the uterus that commonly occur in women of reproductive age. Many women may not have symptoms, but in some cases, fibroids can cause:

• Heavy or prolonged periods

• Lower abdominal pain or pressure

• Frequent urination

• Infertility or pregnancy complications

✅ Diagnosis and Evaluation

At MCH Hospital, we use the following methods for accurate diagnosis:

• Pelvic Examination

• Ultrasound (TVS/Abdominal)

• MRI Scan (for complex cases)
