In Reply to: can you give some symptoms of your fibroid? sm - LMT

the symptoms that took me to my ob/gyn were heavy bleeding which used to be only one day out of my period and keeps getting worse, to the point I cannot wear tampons and I go through a pad at least every 20-30 minutes for the first few days of my period. I also have horrible cramps that used to be only one day out of my period but now they start a day or two before my period and this last period lasted 3-4 days. They double me over sometimes and I have noticed it occasionally when I am about to pass a clot. I know that is a lot more info than some may want to hear and I apologize about that but that has been my experience. This all started quite a few years ago and it has gradually become worse. Thank God my husband has good insurance.

What are your symptoms? Are there any government assisted medical facilities near you?
