women reported being embarrassed to discuss their menstrual bleeding or pain with others. 2 Given that many symptoms of uterine fibroids can be confused for common menstrual period issues, it's imperative that women feel comfortable talking about these issues with their healthcare providers.

Mitchell continued, “As a global leader in women's health, we are committed to providing physicians and their patients with resources to help identify and treat the symptoms of uterine fibroids, which are a serious problem for a large majority of women.
