Generally, doctors believe that fibroids shrink as women enter Menopause.
However, today, I want to discuss that this is not a consistent finding.
So what are the possible reasons why some women have fibroids after menopause and others don't?
And what are the options for women who struggle with fibroids over the age when they should have disappeared?
Here's the paper/study I mentioned in the video:
Uterine Fibroids in Menopause and Perimenopause - PMC (nih.gov)
