Uterine fibroid
Noncancerous growths in the uterus during the
childbearing year of a female called leiomyomas
or myomas are generically called Uterine fibroid.
They are not associated with any type of uterine
cancer and they may never develop into cancerous
tissue.
Most of the women have uterine fibroids at some
time during their lives but as it does not cause
any visible symptoms it goes undetected. These
fibroids range in size from an undetectable seed
to masses that can distort and enlarge the
uterus. The uterus could be enlarged where it
could sometimes touch the thoracic cage and also
add weight to the body. Due to the mostly
asymptomatic nature of the Uterine fibroid, it is
most natural that this cannot be felt by the
female and a doctor may also stumble on the
fibroid in a pelvic examination or a prenatal
ultrasound. 
Research and clinical experience point towards a
few causes that may be the reason for the Uterine
Fibroid, lets check on them to increase our
awareness about Uterine Fibroids.
Genetic changes or changes in genes that differ
from the normal uterine muscle cells may cause
Uterine fibroids to form in the Uterus

Hormones like estrogen and progesterone which
stimulate the development of the lining of the
uterine have been studies to promote the growth
of Uterine fibroids. Studies also show that
fibroid cells have more estrogen and progesterone
receptors than the normal cells of Uterine
muscles. These fibroids tend to shrink after
menopause which points towards these two hormones
in promoting the growth or development of Uterine
fibroids. The fact that they shrink after
menopause is also attributed to the decrease in
the flow of estrogen and progesterone once a
female attains menopause.

Another factor that promotes the growth of
fibroids that came up during studies is the ECM
(Extracellular Matrix). This material that keeps
the cells together is more in Fibroids and they
also contain growth factors pointing towards the
generation of fibroids caused by the change
enhanced by ECM in cells.

Fibroids vary in shape, size and growth patterns.
There may be no similarity in them. Some fibroids
grow slowly, some may grow very fast and some may
remain the same size after their growth. Fibroids
also tend to have growth spurts and some of them
shrink after some time. Fibroids present during
the pregnancy period of a female could shrink or
disappear after the pregnancy when the uterus
goes back to its normal size. 
Mostly the fibroids dont hinder a woman from
getting pregnant as most of them are very small
and dormant. But there have been cases where
fibroids have caused infertility or pregnancy
loss, especially when the fibroid is submucosal.
Fibroids are also known to raise the risk of
certain pregnancy-related complications like
fetal growth restriction, placental abruption and
preterm delivery.
