She knew she has one because she was involved in a study for ovarian cancer and was told them that there was one. She thought she had a UTI but her urine was clear so she had a scan testerday. The fibroid is the only thing that showed up.
She has never had any type of gynae problems, now is going to the loo more and has a pain near her ovaries and back. Everything I've read says they should get smaller after the menopause, hers obviously hasn't .
She is being referred to gynae. Will they be able to be shrunk or is an op the most common way to remove them?
