Don’t take uterine fibroids lightly

Gynecologists caution that in spite of fibroids being a common problem women should not take it lightly. Past President Delhi Gynae Endoscopy Society Padmashri Dr. Malvika Sabharwal said fibroids arise from the musculature in the uterus, they are hormone-dependent and get stimulated to increase in size.

With over 50,000 surgeries under her belt, she even holds the world record for removing the largest fibroid from the uterus, and that too without harming the patient’s reproductive organ.
