WHY you NEED to deepen your knowledge of FIBROIDS…
Uterine fibroids (UFs) affect up to 70% of women by the time of menopause.
Annual costs in the U.S. are estimated at $34 billion, with a significant portion being out of pocket.
Uterine fibroids diminish quality of life, fertility, and overall health.
UFs impact the cardiovascular system and lead to anemia & iron deficiency.
UFs can lead to chronic pelvic pain, prolapse, & incontinence.
Diagnosis & treatment are commonly delayed, causing unnecessary suffering.
