Uterine fibroids are much more common than you might think. But because there is stigma around certain symptoms like heavy bleeding and pain during sex, many women do not feel comfortable openly discussing their experience with UF. By creating a community of women with fibroids, we are encouraging women to break the silence and share their stories. Talking about uterine fibroids will help remove these stigmas by showing women that there is nothing to be ashamed of, while empowering them through shared knowledge and understanding.

Melissa,28,
Darts were never Melissa Costa’s chosen sport, but she felt that getting her fibroids treated was exactly that – throwing darts at a dartboard and hoping something would stick.

Jasmine, 33,
Jasmine’s brother is ten years her senior. It took that decade for her mother to get pregnant again, due to fertility issues caused by fibroids. Jasmine’s entry to the world was quickly followed by her mother’s hysterectomy, in her attempt to live a better life, being rid of uterine fibroids for once and for all.

Stephanie, 51,
At age 51, with an adult daughter, the theoretical idea of a hysterectomy didn’t faze Stephanie Burbank. But when surgery was offered as a solution to the pain and other life-crippling symptoms she had been experiencing from her uterine fibroids, Stephanie surprised even herself by becoming incredibly emotional about the idea that she would be losing her womb.
