FIBROIDS AND BIRTH CONTROL PILLS

 


Fibroids are non-cancerous growths in the uterus and the most common pelvic tumor in women. In some cases fibroids can increase the heaviness of the menstrual flow.


While taking birth control pills can reduce the heavy flow, they will not reduce the size of the fibroids. In fact, birth control pills may cause the fibroids to grow larger. Fibroids are very responsive to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone.


Since estrogen causes fibroids to grow, women with fibroids will need to stay away from hormonal birth control that uses large doses of estrogen.


Low-dose estrogen birth control pills and also progestin-only mini pills are safe for women with fibroids to take.


Black women are hit hardest by fibroids, diagnosed roughly three times as frequently as white women and with more severe symptoms.


Nearly a quarter of Black women between 18 and 30 have fibroids compared to about 6% white women, according to some national estimates.


By age 35, that number increases to 60%. Black women are also two to three times more likely to have recurring fibroids or suffer from complications. If you are diagnosed with fibroids, do your own research so you can understand the terms and make the best decision for yourself.

POSTPARTUM SEX

 Just thinking about having sex can seem exhausting for new parents, specifically with all the things stacked against them: the pain from delivery, medications, hormones and possible depression. Although there is no obligatory waiting period before a couple can have sex again, many health care providers recommend holding on to sex until four to six weeks after delivery, irrespective of the delivery method. In addition to postpartum discharge and vaginal tears, you might experience fatigue, vaginal dryness, pain, and low sexual desire. Furthermore, if you had a vaginal tear requiring surgical repair, you might need to hold off a bit longer. According to Parent Magazine, giving birth awakens us to a range of sensations, and as a result, our bodies, particularly our genitals, become more alive, increasing our pleasure potential.
