As featured in the New York Amsterdam News, reality TV star Cynthia Bailey has become a powerful advocate for women’s health at the Black Health Matters Summit. Her journey with uterine fibroids and her decision to undergo uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) has inspired countless women to seek help and explore treatment options. Bailey’s openness about her experience has helped to destigmatize the discussion of fibroids and promote a greater understanding of the condition.
Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths that often develop in the uterus. They can cause a range of symptoms including heavy bleeding, pelvic pain, and fatigue. For many women, fibroids can significantly impact their quality of life.
Bailey’s decision to share her experience with the public was courageous. She has used her platform to raise awareness about fibroids and to encourage other women to seek help.
