How fast do fibroids develop?

Fibroids can develop at varying rates, with some growing slowly over several years while others may increase in size more rapidly within a few months. The growth rate often depends on factors like hormonal changes, particularly estrogen levels, and individual health conditions. In some cases, fibroids may remain small and asymptomatic for long periods, while in others, they can cause significant symptoms as they grow. Regular monitoring by a healthcare provider can help track their development.
