Do you have a subserosal fibroid?Subserosal fibroids are fibroids that develops on the external part of the uterus, and makes the uterus to look bigger than it really is.
They usually develop during menstruation, because this is the time when their blood supply to the uterus is highest.The blood provides the subserous fibroids nutrition and oxygen, which accelerates their growth.
Subserous fibroids can grow very big, and can even grow as big as the size of a six month pregnancy.A feeling of bulkiness and consistent discomfort may often be experienced because of these.
In addition, they can also cause pain in other areas of the body, such as the lower back or behind the legs because they may stimulate the nerve paths attached to these areas of the body.
Other symptoms of subserosal fibroids include abdominal bloating, especially during menstruation, as well as looking pregnant due to the bulky fibroid.
Due to their size and location, they may cause pressure on the organs such as the colon, causing difficulty in moving bowels, as well as the bladder, causing incontinence or difficulty in urinating. They can even damage the tubes that connect the bladder to the kidneys, and damage the kidneys. This is why medical practioners will often advise a surgical approach to stop subserous fibroids from causing further damage to your body.
Even though invasive methods can give quick results, there are risks involved.For instance, laparascopic myomectomies may cause damage to the surrounding blood vessels or the intestines.They may also leave scars and cause adhesions, which may affect normal digestion as well as your fertility.
Uterine Artery Embolization causes tissue death, and this can promote serious infection in the uterus that may spread to other areas of the body.A lot of pain will be experienced while the tissue is dying, and a very unpleasant vaginal odor will be caused by the dead tissue.
The danger and unwanted side effects associated with invasive methods can be serious and life-threatening, therefore many women look for other safe options that provide gradual results, but do not carry risks.
