Suggest Treatment For Large Uterine Fibroid

My 46 year old daughter has been diagnosed with a large (size of racquetball) uterine fibroid. She assures me it is benign. How can I be sure since she plans to wait until July to have it removed since she recently changed jobs and is awaiting new insurance coverage.

Hi,

I have gone through your question and understand your concern. Sometimes big uterine fibroids are also benign. If your daughter is assuring you about that, then it can be.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
