Intrauterine Fibroid

Dr. Mangala Patil offers comprehensive care and treatment for Intrauterine Fibroids, providing women with the knowledge and personalized treatment options they need to manage this common uterine condition. Fibroids are non-cancerous growths that can develop in the uterus, often leading to symptoms such as heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, or pressure. While many fibroids don’t cause noticeable symptoms, others can interfere with fertility, pregnancy, and overall well-being. Dr. Patil offers expert solutions tailored to each patient’s needs, focusing on both symptom management and long-term health.

What Are Intrauterine Fibroids?

Intrauterine fibroids, also known as uterine fibroids, are benign (non-cancerous) tumors made up of muscle and fibrous tissue that develop in or around the uterus. Depending on their size, location, and number, fibroids can cause a range of symptoms or remain asymptomatic.

Fertility and Pregnancy Considerations

Intrauterine fibroids can sometimes impact fertility, especially submucosal or intramural fibroids. Dr. Patil works closely with women who are trying to conceive and offers tailored solutions, which may include myomectomy or other fertility treatments. For women who are already pregnant, Dr. Patil monitors fibroids closely, as they can sometimes lead to complications like preterm labor or placental abruption.
