1457.	C.R	Launceston	Why should so many women have to fight their corner where treatments are concerned. Why do we feel as if the start of treatment is the beginning of a long road of pain before something works. Wake up doctors.

1454.	N.B	Checkendon	Definitely need more research into causes and less invasive treatment. Are they really caused by imbalance in hormones? I had mri guided focused ultra sound, 4 hours in an mri scanner which made absolutely no difference to my fibroids. Spoke to someone who had UAE and that wasn't too successful either. Doesn't seem to be many options except surgery.

1442.	J.B	Ardersier	I suffered from fibroids from 26 years of age. My consultant never even checked for them, as his belief was that I was too young to have fibroids, and by the time they were found nearly two years later they resulted in a hysterectomy for me. This lack of research and knowledge of my consultant has resulted in me never being able to have my own children. The consequences to me have been life changing and certainly not in a good way!!
1441.	S.S	Halton Village, Runcorn	I have seen my GP about my fibroid but she told me and it is quite common for people like me to have this condition. Apparently I shouldn't worry about it. But I do because it is so heave and looks like I am pregnant 52 weeks a year, every year since 5 years ago.....

1439.	A.F	Doncaster	I have been getting treatment/ prognosise for over five years more needs to be done for this to be highlighted as a immobilising problem for many women when left.
