Menorrhagia is a menstrual period with excessively heavy flow and falls under the larger category of abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB). Uterine fibroids, also known as uterine leiomyomas or fibroids, are benign smooth muscle tumors of the uterus.

Similarities between Menorrhagia and Uterine fibroid

Menorrhagia and Uterine fibroid have 13 things in common (in Unionpedia): Adenomyosis, Anemia, Endometrial ablation, Endometriosis, Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist, Gynaecology, Hormonal IUDs, Hysterectomy, Hysteroscopy, Iron, Menopause, Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, Progesterone.
