Uterine fibroids (also known as leiomyomas or myomas) are the most common form of benign uterine tumors.
Do you know the symptoms? Knowing them can help facilitate an early and accurate diagnosis.

It was great having this international campaign that raised more awareness for uterine #fibroids. Let's keep working to let others know that because a condition is benign it doesn't mean that it does not have a life changing and damaging impact. #invisibledoesnotmeanimaginary
It's important that women diagnosed with #fibroids are aware of all the treatment options available so that they can make an informed decision about the treatment that best suits their situation.

@FibroidFoun Need to increase awareness of the benefits of Vitamin D
Vitamin D has been found to have a strong anti-fibroid effect
Black women are more prone to fibroids, and also more likely to be vitamin D deficient
