Endocrinology of uterine fibroids: steroid hormones, stem cells, and genetic contribution.

Current opinion in obstetrics & gynecology - 1 Aug 2015

Moravek Molly B, Bulun Serdar E

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Uterine fibroids are extremely common, and can cause significant morbidity, yet the exact cause of these tumors remains elusive and there are currently no long-term treatments available. In this review, we aim to provide an overview of steroid hormones, genetic abnormalities, and stem cells in the pathogenesis of uterine fibroids. RECENT FINDINGS: A universal feature of fibroids is...
