Some studies show that up to 80% of women develop fibroids by the time they turn 50<\/a>. And that means all women are at risk. But there are some factors that make it more likely you could develop the condition:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n Black women have the most trouble with uterine fibroids. If you\u2019re African-American, you\u2019re 2-3 times<\/a> more likely to get fibroids than a woman of any other race. You will likely develop the condition at a younger age and will probably have more and larger fibroids<\/a> than white women with the condition.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n And if you do get fibroids, the symptoms<\/a> \u2014 including belly pain or pressure, bloating, and unusually painful or heavy periods \u2014 will most likely be worse for you than they are for women of other races.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n Women who are obese<\/a> have a higher chance of getting fibroids \u2014 up to three times higher \u2014 than women who are not.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n Studies show that having a higher body mass index<\/a> (the calculation of your body fat based on your height and weight) makes you more likely to get fibroids, especially if you have over 30% body fat and carry excess weight in your abdominal area.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n Why is body size a factor with fibroids? Nobody\u2019s sure, but it\u2019s known that obesity can cause a woman to produce more of the reproductive hormone estrogen. And studies show that women with higher amounts of estrogen have a greater chance of developing fibroids.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n If you\u2019re big on burgers and skip the salad, you\u2019re increasing your risk of getting fibroids. Eating lots of red meat<\/a> (like beef) and ham, and not enough fruit and green vegetables, seems to make it more likely that a woman will develop the condition.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n Some studies suggest that fibroids could be\u00a0hereditary: If your mother had the condition, that makes you three times more likely to get fibroids than someone who doesn\u2019t have them in the family.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n Women who have never been pregnant are more prone to getting fibroids than women who have. The more times a woman gets pregnant<\/a>, the lower her risk of developing the condition.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n If you think you might be suffering from fibroids, there are many options for treatment<\/a>, from the minimally invasive (like Uterine Fibroid Embolization<\/a>, also called UFE) to the more extensive (such as a hysterectomy). Talk to an ob\/gyn to decide which is best for you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n If you have fibroids, Viva Eve can help<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n The doctors at Viva Eve have years of experience in the treatment of both uterine fibroids<\/a> and adenomyosis<\/a> through uterine fibroid embolization (UFE).
