My Fibroid Family Tree

August 21,2023

If you have a family health history of fibroid disease, you are more likely to get that disease yourself.  It’s important to share your family health history with your doctor, who can help you take steps to diagnose the disease and catch it early if it develops. And the first step is to create a family history health tree.
