Uterine fibroids: your questions answered

Uterine fibroids, also known as leiomyomas or simply myomas, are non-cancerous growths that develop in the uterus, which is the organ where a baby grows during pregnancy. These growths are made up of muscle and fibrous tissue and can vary in size, ranging from as small as a pea to as large as a melon.
