Fibroids affect over 26 million women in the U.S. and by the time a woman is 50, over 70% of white females, and 84% of black females will have one! More than half of these 26 million women will experience associated symptoms with having fibroids in the uterus, causing disruption in quality of life and healthcare costs as well. Today Jamie & Teresa will look into what fibroids are, and how would you know that you have one? What things do you need to consider in the management of fibroid tumors? The good news is, first of all, they are always benign and not cancerous, but they do sometimes take medical and surgical management and a woman may need to decide which options are best for her. Polyps are an overgrowth of endometrial stroma cells that grow within the uterine cavity. They affect about 10% of all women and can happen throughout the reproductive life of a woman, but their peak incidence is from 40 to 50 years of age. They are mostly benign, but in rare cases can be precancerous growths. They are often identified due to the abnormal bleeding they cause for women. About 29% of the time polyps can spontaneously regress, but many times have to be removed through a simple surgical procedure called a polypectomy. We cannot fully go through all the options for surgical management because we are not doctors on the hormone genius podcast, but Jamie will ask nurse practitioner Teresa Kenney to help us go through the basics of this women's health issue and have a good overview of what to expect in having this condition One question that Teresa did not know the answer to during the recording of this podcast, but then found out later, is whether she has a fibroid. Interestingly, Teresa looked at a recent ultrasound and found out that she does! It is small and it doesn't have any impact on her health, but it was something that she was unaware of until she took a deep dive into the issue of fibroids on the Hormone Genius Podcast.
