Fibroid Evaluation & Management in Royal Palm Beach
Uterine fibroids are a common condition that can cause discomfort, heavy bleeding, and fertility challenges for many women. At Gentle Birth Center OBGYN, we provide thorough fibroid evaluation and individualized management plans focused on symptom relief, uterine health, and your long-term wellness goals.
What Are Uterine Fibroids?
Fibroids are noncancerous growths of the uterus that vary in size, number, and location. While some women experience no symptoms, others may have significant discomfort that affects daily life.
Common fibroid symptoms include:
- Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
- Pelvic pressure or pain
- Bloating or abdominal fullness
- Pain during intercourse
- Frequent urination or constipation
- Difficulty getting pregnant or pregnancy complications
Comprehensive Fibroid Evaluation
Accurate diagnosis is key to effective treatment. Your evaluation may include:
- Detailed medical and symptom history
- Pelvic exam
- Pelvic ultrasound or advanced imaging
- Blood tests to assess anemia or hormonal factors
- Review of fertility goals and future plans
- Our providers take the time to understand how fibroids are affecting your life—not just what imaging shows.
Personalized Fibroid Management Options
Treatment depends on symptom severity, fibroid size and location, age, and fertility goals. Management options may include:
- Watchful monitoring for mild or asymptomatic fibroids
- Hormonal therapies to control bleeding and pain
- Non-hormonal medications for symptom relief
- Fertility-preserving treatment options
- Referral for minimally invasive or surgical treatment when appropriate
Our goal is to manage symptoms effectively while preserving reproductive health whenever possible.
When to Seek Care
You should schedule an evaluation if you experience:
- Heavy periods that interfere with daily activities
- Pelvic pain or pressure that worsens over time
- Rapid abdominal enlargement or bloating
- Difficulty conceiving
- Anemia-related fatigue or weakness
Early evaluation can help prevent complications and improve outcomes.
