1 Answer

A. Fibroids (also known as uterine leiomyomas) typically do not cause shorter menstrual cycles. Instead, they are more commonly associated with:
- **Heavier Menstrual Bleeding:** Fibroids can lead to menorrhagia (heavy menstrual bleeding) due to increased blood flow to the uterine area.
- **Longer Menstrual Periods:** They can cause longer periods or prolonged bleeding.
- **Irregular Menstrual Cycles:** Fibroids might result in irregular cycles, including spotting between periods.
Shorter menstrual cycles (less than 21 days) are usually associated with other conditions, such as hormonal imbalances, thyroid issues, or perimenopause.
If you’re experiencing significant changes in your menstrual cycle or have concerns about fibroids, it’s best to consult with your gynecologist. They can perform evaluations, such as ultrasound or hormonal assessments, to determine the cause and provide appropriate treatment options.
