Is fibroid the cause of some women having abdominal pains during their menstrual period?
This is one of the presumptuous symptoms. Fibroid causes pains especially during menstrual periods. In some cases the pain is centred in the lower abdomen and even in the back (back-ache). Then, also, the usual swelling of the stomach when the fibroid gets bigger and bigger. When fibroid co-exists with pregnancy, does it affect the size of the baby? It does not affect the size of the baby in any way. While the fibroid grows the baby also grows at the same time. You can see that some women can bring forth triplet, quadruplets or more. A woman has sufficient blood to service all of them together. What is the cause of fibroid? The main cause is not yet known but doctors have noticed that it is commonest in women who wish to have their first babies late especially from 30, 35 years or more. Nature hates vacuum, so I believe when the womb is left empty for sometime it turns to produce something due to accumulation of hormones. Fibroid is not common with women in the age bracket of 20 – 25 y
