In this Singapore Motherhood feature, Dr. Harvard Lin from the Asian Obstetrics and Gynaecology Centre discusses uterine fibroids—common, non-cancerous growths in women of reproductive age. While often symptomless, fibroids can cause heavy bleeding, pain, or affect fertility, depending on their size and location. Dr. Lin stresses that not all fibroids need treatment, but when symptoms or fertility issues arise, medical or surgical options are available. He urges women to seek early evaluation for menstrual changes or difficulty conceiving, as timely diagnosis improves outcomes.
