I have a question about uterine fibroids.

There are quite a few friends who have uterine fibroids.

I'm worried that I should also get tested. From what I've heard, the increase in diseases is partly due to additives used in the foods we eat these days. It can be easily checked through blood tests and ultrasound exams, and they also perform MRI scans. Are there any symptoms, prevention methods, or self-diagnosis techniques?

My friend said she found out after going to the hospital because she had a stomachache.
