Uterine fibroids are the most common benign pelvic tumors in women, and often develop during a woman\u2019s reproductive years. While some fibroids don\u2019t produce any symptoms at all, others can cause debilitating symptoms, such as heavy, prolonged, and painful periods. A woman may have one or several types of fibroids, and the type of fibroid a woman develops depends on its location in or on the uterus<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

Here are the four major types of uterine fibroids and the symptoms associated with each:<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n
Intramural Fibroids<\/strong>

Intramural fibroid tumors are the most common type of fibroid and typically develop within the uterine wall and expand from there. This type of fibroid can also cause excessive menstrual bleeding, prolonged menstrual cycles, clot passing, and pelvic pain due to the additional pressure placed on surrounding organs by fibroid growth.
<\/li>
Subserosal Fibroids<\/strong>

Subserosal fibroids typically develop on the outer uterine wall. The growth of a subserosal fibroid will put additional pressure on surrounding organs. Therefore, symptoms of subserosal fibroid tumors usually do not include abnormal or excessive menstrual bleeding or interfere with a woman\u2019s typical menstrual flow.
<\/li>
Submucosal Fibroids<\/strong>

The least common of the various types of fibroid tumors are submucosal fibroids. These fibroids develop just under the lining of the uterine cavity. Large submucosal fibroids may increase the size of the uterine cavity and can block the fallopian tubes, which can cause complications with fertility. Some submucosal fibroids do not produce any symptoms at all, whereas others can be severely symptomatic.
<\/li>
Pedunculated Fibroids<\/strong>

Pedunculated uterine fibroids occur when a fibroid tumor grows on a stalk, resulting in pedunculated submucosal or subserosal fibroids. These fibroids can grow into the uterus and also can grow on the outside of the uterine wall. Symptoms associated with pedunculated fibroid tumors include pain and pressure as the fibroids can sometimes twist on the stalk.<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n
