Uterine Fibroids

Welcome to a place where warmth, compassion, and expert care converge. At Caronette Fibroid & Pelvic Wellness Center (CFPWC), we understand the challenges that come with uterine fibroids. That’s why we’re dedicated to providing comprehensive solutions tailored to your unique needs. Allow us to introduce you to Dr. O. Lawrence Stitt III, an esteemed specialist who is ready to guide you on your path to wellness.

Uterine fibroids, non-cancerous tumors that develop in the uterine muscular tissue, affect countless women. They can manifest on the inside or outside layers of the uterine wall, assuming various sizes and shapes. Dr. Stitt and the CFPWC team are well-versed in the complexities of fibroids and are committed to helping you regain control over your health.

Recognizing the symptoms of uterine fibroids is crucial in seeking timely care. These symptoms can vary, from dull aching pain in the lower back to pelvic pain, abdominal cramping, and pain during sexual intercourse. Other signs may include heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding, bleeding between periods, anemia, constipation, frequent urination, or difficulty urinating. Rest assured, our dedicated team at CFPWC is well-equipped to diagnose and address your concerns.

When it comes to fibroid development, there are a few known risk factors. Women of reproductive age are more susceptible, and genetics can play a role too. If your mother or sister had fibroids, it’s essential to remain vigilant. Additionally, African American women are at higher risk, often experiencing fibroids at younger ages and with more frequency or larger sizes. Environmental factors, such as early onset of menstruation, certain dietary habits, and lifestyle choices, may also influence fibroid development.

Dr. Stitt and our experienced medical professionals understand the impact that fibroids can have on your quality of life. While fibroids are generally benign, they can cause pain and complications within your reproductive system. Large fibroids may exert pressure on the abdomen, resulting in discomfort and swelling. Moreover, when a fibroid twists on itself, severe pain and nausea may ensue. In some cases, fibroids can even affect fertility or lead to pregnancy complications.

At CFPWC, we believe in empowering you with a range of effective treatment options. Dr. Stitt and his team will carefully evaluate your situation to determine the best course of action. Depending on your needs, we may recommend nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), hormonal therapies, myomectomy, hysteroscopy, endometrial ablation, laparoscopic radiofrequency ablation, uterine artery embolization, or, as a last resort, a hysterectomy. Rest assured, we prioritize your well-being and will work closely with you to find the most suitable solution.

Your journey to wellness begins with a warm and inviting environment. At CFPWC, we create a space where you can feel heard, supported, and understood. Dr. Stitt’s expertise, combined with our compassionate team, ensures that you receive the highest level of care throughout your treatment.
