Welcome to the OBGYN.net Fibroid Forum.
Here you will be able to discuss fibroids with other women, ask questions and get opinions from the world's leading experts on fibroid treatments. I will be your guide and moderator. My name is Hope Waltman and I have walked in your shoes and gone through the process myself.
Meeting other women and families who suffer with Uterine Fibroids is a great way to learn about this disease and develop a treatment plan for your personal situation.
Uterine Fibroids disease not only affects our physical being, but it can also affect us in other ways we never thought of - our moods, makes us afraid, it may cause us to have a feeling of denial because we can't talk about what we are feeling to anyone. Fibroids can affect a woman's quality of life. Please remember as you enter our Fibroid Forum that YOU ARE NOT ALONE. Many women and families are suffering everyday with fibroid symptoms.
I would like to tell you a little about my story. My Mother had fibroids and she had a Hysterectomy. When I started to have severe pain/spasms 2 ½ years before my fibroids were diagnosed I never realized they could be caused by heredity. By the time I had an ultrasound performed to confirm the fibroids I was already experiencing frequent urination, constipation, excessive bleeding and clots, bulk feeling, lack of energy, painful periods and ovulation, and lack of concentration due to the pain and discomfort I was experiencing every month.
My fibroid journey has taught me that communicating with other women, families, and the physicians that volunteer their time to help educate women online has been a very positive avenue in the process of healing my inner self. In turn I can now help other women. I want to wish each of you good health and happiness!!
Sincerely,
Hope Waltman
