Jean Hailes gynaecologist Dr Elizabeth Farrell featured on ABC radio’s The Health Report in a special report on fibroids.

Fibroids are very common, with up to 70 per cent of women affected by age 50. For most women, fibroids do not produce symptoms and many women will never even know that they have fibroids. In this interview, Dr Farrell discusses the different types of fibroids and the treatment options available, if the fibroid produces symptoms that are interfering with quality of life.
