The Villain that Lives inside You
Introducing the Face of Your Fibroids
Meet Filbert
For millions of women, living with uterine fibroids feels like being stuck with an unwanted guest who just won’t leave. Meet Filbert, “The Fibroid Villain” behind your heavy periods and bloating that invades your day – from work meetings to date nights.
Filbert doesn’t just exist; this intruder takes over every space it can fill causing:
- Heavy, Prolonged Bleeding: You wear dark clothes and conceal emergency supplies in every pocket.
- Pelvic Pain: A “heavy” feeling or sharp cramps that linger long after your period ends.
- The “Fibroid Belly”: Persistent bloating or a protruding stomach that makes your favorite clothes feel tight.
- Frequent Urination: Pressure against your bladder and frequent bathroom trips.
- Chronic Fatigue: Exhaustion due to the iron loss from heavy cycles.
The Name “Filbert” Isn’t Random; It’s a cheeky play on the word fill. This intruder fills your body with unwelcome growths, fills your days with pain, and fills your life with interruptions. The name is also a nod to the lumpy, nut-like shapes fibroids often take. After one particularly aggressive growth spurt, “Filbert” became the perfect name for a villain that tries to fill every bit of space it can find.
Evict the Unwanted Intruder: Here is Filbert’s biggest secret: it is not invincible. This intruder can be shrunk, starved, and shown the door.
Taking control starts with knowledge. You have options like Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE)—a non-surgical treatment that targets the fibroids while preserving your uterus. Filbert loathes when women fight back because it works. Every success story shrinks this villain’s hold on your life.
