Fibroids Diagnosis and Treatment

Fibroids are one of the most common gynecologic conditions affecting women during their reproductive years. At NUR Fertility in Nairobi, we specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of uterine fibroids, offering expert, compassionate care using modern diagnostic tools and evidence-based treatments. Whether you are experiencing symptoms or have already been diagnosed, we are here to guide you toward effective relief and improved reproductive health.

What Are Uterine Fibroids?

Fibroids, also known as uterine leiomyomas, are non-cancerous growths that develop in or around the uterus. They vary in size and location and can be single or multiple. While some women may have fibroids without symptoms, others may experience discomfort and complications that affect their daily lives and fertility.

Common Symptoms of Fibroids

Not all fibroids cause symptoms, but when they do, they may include:

  • Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding

  • Pelvic pain or pressure

  • Frequent urination or difficulty emptying the bladder

  • Pain during intercourse

  • Lower back pain

  • Bloating or abdominal enlargement

  • Difficulty conceiving or pregnancy complications

If you experience any of these symptoms, it’s important to seek evaluation and care.

Diagnostic Approach at NUR Fertility

At NUR Fertility, we use advanced diagnostic tools to evaluate the size, number, and location of fibroids. Our approach includes:

  • Comprehensive medical history review

  • Pelvic examination

  • Ultrasound imaging (transabdominal or transvaginal)

  • Additional imaging such as MRI if needed

  • Blood tests to check for anemia related to heavy bleeding

Accurate diagnosis is essential to determining the best treatment options for your unique situation.

Personalized Fibroid Treatment Options

Treatment depends on several factors including the size of the fibroids, severity of symptoms, age, and whether you plan to conceive. At NUR Fertility, we offer both non-surgical and surgical options:

  • Medication therapy to manage bleeding and shrink fibroids

  • Hormonal treatments including birth control or GnRH agonists

  • Minimally invasive surgery such as laparoscopic myomectomy

  • Hysteroscopic removal for fibroids inside the uterine cavity

  • Referral for uterine artery embolization when appropriate

Our goal is to relieve symptoms, improve your quality of life, and preserve fertility whenever possible.
