Fibroid Treatment According to Expert's Perspective

Dr. Ziv J. Haskal, a tenured professor of Radiology and Surgery, Vice Chair of Radiology, Director of Image Guided Therapy and Interventional Oncology, and Chief of the Vascular and Interventional Radiology Division at the University of Maryland Medical Center in Baltimore, MD. has defined what fibroid tumors are:

Fibroid tumors are noncancerous growths (tumors) in the uterus. In most cases, healing is not needed at all. Treatment is only considered if the fibroid is budding quickly or if you have symptoms such as:

Excessive vaginal bleeding
Pelvic pressure
Pain with intercourse
Abdominal enlargement
Abdominal pain

Previously, most women who had fibroids with symptoms needed surgery to correct the problem; latest research, however, has led to numerous new treatments that do not require surgery.
