Fibroids are solid lumps of muscle—some the size of a watermelon—that grow inside the uterine wall. They can dramatically affect a woman’s quality of life and fertility. Lasting treatments are scarce, and scientists still have many questions about them, including why they develop and what makes them grow. Learn about some recent advances, including a procedure that shrinks fibroids using radiofrequency energy, and certain lifestyle interventions that seem to minimize recurrence at the link in bio.

There are so few lasting treatments because we don’t invest time, money, or energy into women’s health research. It’s only been 30 years since medical studies were required to include women in the US. Currently, women’s health research budgets are ~50% of men’s health research. We don’t have better options because we don’t understand root cause because we don’t study it.

I had to have an hysterectomy, it was the only option for me.. and I’m happy that I did it… but for generations to come they will need to have more options than a radical one. Women have more medical care and challenges than men and science is failing us, is fading in the background because of what our bodies needs to be functional and healthy.

I had the procedure and it didn’t fully work. Still have a fibroid the size of a grapefruit ☹️ But it did help with some of the symptoms. OB/GYN’s will tell you the only solution is a hysterectomy. We need more options!

If they affected men, then we would’ve had to care for this by now

I had a hysterectomy because the chance of them growing back was too high.

When National Geographic Explorer Tamara Merino’s tire blew out in a seemingly desolate area of Australia’s Simpson Desert, she had no idea she was near an entire underground community of 2,000 dwelling in an opal mining outpost called Coober Pedy. Intrigued by their way of life, she’s traveled the world—including Jordan, Lesotho, Tunisia, and Turkey, as captured here—in search of other cave societies to document. Though it’s an increasingly rare way of life in the 21st century, humans have lived in caves for millions of years. This ancient practice isn’t just a remnant of humanity’s past—it can also provide important lessons for how we might adapt to climate change as global warming makes surface dwelling more difficult.
