An Anonymous Story: Choosing to Speak Out

July 15,2025

I prefer to remain anonymous, but I believe sharing my story can help others.

Living with Fibroids at 28

I’m a student, and I’ve been living with fibroids since 2022. Because of the lack of good care and support, my condition has only worsened. My stomach keeps getting bigger, as if I were pregnant. The large fibroids have changed my body, taking away the beautiful waist and flat stomach I once had.

The Emotional Toll

Fibroids have made my life feel like hell. I’ve become depressed, I cry often, and I feel sad most of the time. My hormones are out of balance — I get angry quickly, I shout, and I’ve become overly sensitive to everything.

My Hope for the Future

I want proper treatment that will protect my uterus because I still dream of having children. This is my fight — to care for myself, raise awareness about fibroids, and advocate for a world day dedicated to this condition.

Final Message

No one should have to suffer in silence. Together, we can create awareness, improve access to care, and fight for the futures we deserve.
