What Causes Fibroids in Women? Fibroids Risk Factors

As a gynaecologist, I often get asked: “Why do some women get fibroids while others don’t?”

Fibroids are incredibly common, but not every woman develops them. In this video, I’ll explain the key reasons behind this—from genetics to hormones, lifestyle, race, and even environmental exposures.

Here’s what I cover in this video:
• How family history increases fibroid risk
• The role of estrogen and progesterone
• Diet and lifestyle factors that contribute to fibroids
• Why fibroids are more common among Black women
• Whether fibroids can be prevented naturally

If you’ve experienced fibroids or treat patients with them, I’d love to hear your insights. Share your thoughts in the comments, and don’t forget to subscribe for more content on women’s health and fertility.
