Africans and women of African descent are pre-disposed to it. Yes.

Africans are somehow also pre-disposed to hypertension

A wonderful write up. This is where medicine fail. We can say with all assurance that the Pads are the main cause of fibroid. Sanitary pads contain Dioxin. Which is a main toxic element.

Women should avoid, bleached pads and should look for pads with Anion strip.

It helps so much in correction of fibroid. We have have testimonial of those helped using this sanitary pad.

Depends on the size of the fibroids. The most common complication is pain.. On the other hand if the fibroid grows during pregnancy might starve the baby of space thus preventing the baby from growing fully. Your sister could akso have a preterm. Give birth early cos the pain in the fibroid leads to early contraction ..Most severe complication is placenta abruption.. A break of the placenta from the uterine walls which starves the foetus of oxygen. Abnormal space in the womb could lead to a breech.. However most pregnant women with fibroids carry their babies to full term with little to no complications..So be hopeful. I am sure her doctors can take care of her condition. Some women on the positive side experience a shrink on their fibroids after giving birth..
Hope that was helpful..

Stop spreading fake information on a public forum.. Sanitary pads don't cause fibroids.

What do you want to know about Esophageal Ulcers?It is caused by a bacteria called Helicobacter pylori. Thesame bacteria that causes stomach ulcers. Esophageal ulcers are at the junction of the stomach and esophagus (tube connecting throat to stomach).. Can be quite painful but curable with both natural and allopathic medications.. Like most ulcers do avoid NSAIDS (Aspirin, Ibuprofen etc)

Interesting to know! I have sisters and gal friends. It's important to note that a lot of young gals don't understand how to take care of themselves. A certain tall fine babe once paid me visit months back. I wanted to scroll through her garden lolz but unfortunately she was already seeing her red before she came. Gush! As if she planned it.

In a couple of hours, she complained of menstrual pains. I got a bit scared cos she was in pains. Gave her tfare to go home and chatted her what she has done about it. To my surprise, she said nothing. I quickly instructed her to get felvin which she got to know about the first time. The next day she called me to thank me. Telling me she slept like a lil babe.


In a nutshell, a lot of ladies needs threads like this but unfortunately they're on Instagram following some punks with no mental value in their lives

Quite frankly the article fell short of teatment options.. There are severeal treatment options in both the naturopathic and allopathic world. Tailored mostly according to symptoms. For most people who experience heavy menstrual flow, both herbal and allopathic medicines are effective at controlling bleeding.. Surgical removal of the fibroids either together with the womb ( hysterectomy) or surgical removal of just the fibroid ( myomectomy) are often done when the fibroids becomes too big.. Medications to bring down female hormones are another form of treatment.. Promising Chinese medicine though causes a shrink of the fibroid. Sour sop leaves too are amazing with shrinking , while yarrow leaves control heavy periods. .

Hahaha.. Bad guy..

Felvin is a good NSAID. Non Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drug. However like most other drugs in its class of ibuprofen, aspirin and diclofenac should only be used when necessary.. It provokes and aggravates stomach ulcers whike long term use can cause kidney damage. Still it is a good pain killer for osteoarthritis pain, menstrual pain etc

Fibroid is a serious medical condition, prevalent in women. They are tumors which grows and develops in or on a woman’s uterus. These tumors sometimes, may tend to become quite enormous in size and cause severe abdominal pain, abdominal swelling and heavy periods. In some women, they cause no signs or symptoms at all. The growths are typically benign, or noncancerous.
[img]https://1.bp..com/-kMyUsUHBxWI/XW1IADU1CZI/AAAAAAAAAJo/w2o3bfPBklgechya7saKLv5_eP2yTkxJgCLcBGAs/s1600/Fibroid%2BIllustration.png[/img]

The causes of fibroid, however, are currently still unknown to health researchers. According to research, about up to 80 percent of women have them by the age of 50. However, most women don’t have any symptoms and may never know they have fibroid.

Types of fibroid
The type of fibroid a woman develops depends on its location in or on the uterus.

Intramural fibroid
Intramural fibroid appears to be the most rampant or common type of this disturbing medical condition ― fibroid. These types appear within the muscular wall of the uterus. Intramural fibroid may grow so enormous to the point of stretching your womb.

Subserosal fibroid
Subserosal fibroids are known to form on the outside of your uterus, which is called the serosa. They may grow large enough to make your womb appear bigger on one side.

Pedunculated fibroid
Subserosal tumors can develop a stem, a slender base that supports the tumor. When they do, they’re known as pedunculated fibroid.

Submucosal fibroid
These types of tumors develop in the middle muscle layer, or myometrium, of your uterus. Submucosal tumors aren’t as common as the other types.

Causes fibroid
It’s currently still unclear why fibroid develop, but a bunch of factors are pointed to influence their development..

Hormones
Estrogen and progesterone are the hormones produced by the ovaries. They cause the uterine lining to regenerate during each menstrual cycle and may stimulate the growth of fibroid.

Family history
Just like other medical conditions like seizures, diabetes etc; fibroid may run in the family. If your mother, sister, or grandmother has a history of this condition, you may develop it as well.

Pregnancy
During pregnancy, there's an increase in the production of estrogen and progesterone in the body. These two hormones are pointed to help the flourished growth of Fibroid in the body.

Here are the outlined risk increasing factors for fibroid, that is, women who have one or more of these factors are more likely to develop fibroid:

1. Pregnancy
2. A family history of fibroid
3. Age of 30 or older
4. Africans
5. A high body weight


Symptoms of fibroid
The symptoms you notice depends mostly on the number of tumors you have, as well as the location and size in your body. For instance, submucosal fibroid may cause heavy menstrual bleeding and trouble conceiving.

If your tumor is very small or you’re going through menopause, you may not have any symptoms. Fibroids may shrink during and after menopause. This is because women undergoing menopause are experiencing a drop in their levels of estrogen and progesterone, hormones that stimulate fibroid growth.

Symptoms of fibroid may include:

- Heavy bleeding between or during your periods that includes blood clots
- Pain in the pelvis or lower back
- Increased cramps during menstruation
- Frequent urination
- Noticeable pain while having sex
- Longer lasting menstruation
- Pressure or fullness in your lower abdomen
- Noticeable abdominal bloating or swelling
