WHAT CAUSES UTERINE FIBROID?

If you have uterine fibroids or suspect you might have fibroids, one of the things you will be wondering is ‘’why me?” This is a very important question, and one that plagues many women who suffer from fibroids. The simple answer to why women get fibroids is that there is no absolute cause or none that can be directly pinpointed. What medical researchers and physicians do know is that uterine fibroids are greatly affected by changing oestrogen (hormone) levels, which play a part in the fibroid tumour development and growth. Other causes of fibroids can be genetic, hormonal, environmental or some combination of all of these. In fact, Doctors are sure that these risk factors, and potentially causal agents, all interact with each other to increase the likelihood of uterine fibroid development in a woman.

FACTORS THAT MAY INCREASE FIBROIDS DEVELOPMENT
• Increased lifetime exposure to oestrogen. This is due to early menarche, fewer pregnancies, increased follicular phase and/or obesity. Body fat produces and stores oestrogen.
• Exposure to xenoestrogens such as plastics, pesticides, herbicides, synthetic hormones in both meat and dairy products, or hormone replacement therapy.
• Poor oestrogen metabolism. Some women’s bodies have a harder time removing and metabolizing excess oestrogen.
• Hypertension
• Infection complications from IUD use
• Perineal talc use
• Anovulatory cycles
• Endometrial hyperplasia (common in women with PCOS)
