Myomas, also known as uterine fibroids, are noncancerous growths that originate in the muscular wall of the uterus. They range in size from small, seed-like nodules to larger masses that can distort the shape and size of the uterus. These growths can cause symptoms such as heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, and pressure on the bladder or bowel.
Endometriosis is a chronic condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus (endometrium) grows outside the uterus. This tissue behaves like the lining inside the uterus, thickening, breaking down, and bleeding with each menstrual cycle. The misplaced tissue can cause pain, especially during periods, and may lead to fertility problems.
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) occurs when pelvic floor muscles and tissues weaken, causing pelvic organs such as the bladder, uterus, or rectum to bulge or descend into the vagina. This condition can lead to symptoms such as a feeling of pressure, discomfort, or a noticeable bulge in the vaginal area.
Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs that form within or on the surface of the ovaries. These cysts can range in size – from small to large and develop during a woman’s menstrual cycle. While most ovarian cysts are harmless and may resolve on their own, some can cause symptoms like pain, bloating, and changes in menstrual cycles.
Polyps are abnormal tissue growths that can occur in various parts of the body. In gynecology, uterine or cervical polyps are growths that develop on the inner lining of the uterus (endometrial polyps) or on the cervix. These polyps are often benign, but they can sometimes cause symptoms such as irregular menstrual bleeding or contribute to fertility issues.
