Today, I decided to shed some insight on my experience living with and extracting fibroids. As a black woman, we often don't get taken seriously when addressing our medical situations with physicians or specialists. Here is my story and how I overcame this painful process. Be sure to share this story with anyone who could benefit from it! Below, I have linked some of the prominent articles along with a picture of my extracted fibroids.
