Uterine fibroids
are benign tumors of the uterus. They are not cancers, but
can cause symptoms such as excessive bleeding during or between
periods, pressure on the bladder or rectum, discomfort during sexual
relations or interference with fertility. Symptoms from
fibroids, the most common of which is excessive bleeding, can be
anywhere from mild to disabling.

Book 2nd Edition".
