FAQ: Why do fibroids cause painful periods?

Q: Do fibroids cause painful periods?

A: Prostaglandins, naturally occurring chemicals in the body, can exacerbate pain associated with fibroids by 👇

1️⃣ Increasing inflammation in the uterus due to fibroids.

2️⃣ Intensifying uterine contractions, leading to more pronounced menstrual cramps.

3️⃣ Promoting heavy menstrual bleeding, which, combined with fibroid-induced contractions, can worsen period pain in individuals with fibroids.
