July is Fibroid Awareness Month: Get Involved! 

June 27,2025

July marks Fibroid Awareness Month, a crucial time to highlight a condition affecting 26 million women in the United States. Uterine fibroids, benign growths in or around the uterus, cause a wide range of uncomfortable symptoms. Yet, despite how common they are, fibroids often remain a topic shrouded in secrecy and misinformation.
