Fibroid, also known as myoma, is a mass of compacted muscle and fibrous tissue that grows on the wall (or sometimes on the outside) of the uterus. It can be as small as a pea or as large as a grapefruit. Fibroids occur in 50 to 80 percent of women. Fibroids usually develop prior to pregnancy, though many women don't know they have one until they have an ultrasound or the fibroid is discovered during a pelvic exam.
For the 10 to 30 percent of pregnant women with fibroids who do end up having complications, the most common is abdominal pain, which occasionally may be accompanied by light vaginal bleeding.Effects of Fibroids Your risk of miscarriage and premature delivery does increase slightly if you have fibroids.

Approximately 10% to 30% of women with uterine fibroids develop complications during pregnancy. If a fibroid or cluster of fibroids is particularly large or is growing on the outside of the uterine wall, it can push the uterus into an abnormal position. It can also put pressure on the bladder or intestine, causing symptoms such as frequent urination, constipation, pelvic pain, or backache. Fibroids may also cause heavy menstrual bleeding.
Fibroids can interfere with fertility, and they occasionally cause complications during pregnancy. For example, if a large fibroid blocks the opening of a woman's uterus, she may have to deliver her baby by c-section.

Fibroids often shrink and cause no symptoms in women who have gone through menopause.

Some studies show that fibroids are more likely to get smaller when estrogen levels go down (as they do after menopause).
