Pelvic masses significantly impact female health and wellbeing and can be a source of profound morbidity and anxiety for affected women. The most common pelvic masses are uterine fibroids and ovarian cysts and we plan to explore what these conditions are, what causes them and impacts their growth, what problems they cause (including subfertility), available natural and medical interventions, and the risks of malignant change.

The assumption that Natural fertility is everyone’s right and easily navigated, could not be further from the truth. That landscape is fraught with twists and turns and whilst easily navigable for some, can be a nightmare and source of profound pain for many others. We will be exploring the issues at play, from the impact of natural events like aging, to unnatural ones like environmental, dietary and medical influences, and lifestyle factors. We will explore how we can better navigate this journey and what help is available. Please join us.

Polycystic o***y syndrome (PCOS) is the most common cause of the absence of ovulation. It results from an inappropriate release of hormones from a gland in the brain and is associated with the absence of ovulation, absent or irregular menstrual periods and abnormal female hormone levels. Women who are affected are often overweight and have raised blood levels of male-type hormones, leading to excessive growth of facial and body hair, oily skin and acne.

Conditions that make women more likely to manifest PCOS include excessive blood levels of prolactin, low and high levels of thyroid hormone, stress, anxiety, extreme physical exertion (as with athletes), profound weight loss or gain (greater than 15% of body weight), anorexia, and serious illness. The condition appears to run in some families. Women with PCOS have a higher risk of miscarriage. It predisposes to development of diabetes and hypertension in later life and increased risk of pre-cancers of the lining of the womb and breasts.

Every November, the fertility community comes together to put the focus firmly on fertility. Fertility Week seeks to change perceptions, provide support and raise funds for everyone struggling with fertility issues.

Not being able to have the family you yearn for can be a traumatic and incredibly isolating experience. Far too often people struggle in silence with fertility issues but together – sharing stories and experiences – we can change perceptions, provide support and raise funds to help others. We are stronger together.

Fertility Week is a chance to challenge the taboos and myths around infertility and raise awareness of the devastating physical, emotional and social impact fertility problems wreak.

How Do We Investigate Uterine Fibroids?
The symptoms of fibroids can vary quite significantly, depending on a number of factors. Some women have no symptoms, others may experience heavy periods, bleeding between periods, painful s*x, and/or lower back pain.

Taking a detailed history and abdominal/pelvic examination coupled with pelvic ultrasound scan is the main way of diagnosing fibroids. We check blood count to exclude anaemia. It is occasionally necessary to perform an MRI scan in situations where an ultrasound is not clear. Occasionally, additional investigations are warranted, to rule out other conditions.

How Do We Treat Uterine Fibroids?
There are several options for treating fibroids depending on the woman’s age, symptoms, reproductive expectations and state of health, but also the number, size and locations of the fibroids.

Medical Measures
The pain associated with fibroids can be managed with painkillers and heavy menstrual bleeding can be reduced by other drugs. The size of (and symptoms of fibroids) can be reduced by drugs that temporarily suppress ovarian function. All these measures provide temporary relief but all interfere with fertility.
 
Myomectomy
Hysterectomy
Uterine artery embolisation (UAE)
Radio-frequency ablation of fibroids
Complimentary Therapies
