Treatment Options for
Uterine Fibroids
Fibroids are noncancerous tu­
mors in the uterus. It is estimated
that 1 out of 5 women over 30 and
under age 50 experience fibroids.
According to a recent issue of FDA
Consumer, fibroids are responsible
for 3 out of every 10 hysterecto­
mies performed in the U.S. each
year. Some fibroids take years to
grow to the size of a pea, while
others reach grapefruit size in the
same amount of time. Some weigh
more than 20 pounds. The FDA
Consumer indicates that the Ameri­
can College of Obstetricians and
G yn ecologists has developed
guidelines regarding fibroid size
and the need for surgery. If the
uterus is bigger than it would be at
the 12th week of a normal preg­
nancy, a hysterectomy is indicated,
even if no other symptoms are
present.
Other treatment options in­
clude medications and less inva­
sive surgery. A new group of pre­
scription drugs known as “GnRH
analogs” may be used to block the
release of estrogen, causing a
shrinkage of fibroid tissue. These
drugs include leuprolide (Lupron),
nafarelin (Synarel), and goserelin
(Zoladex). Sometimes, symptoms
such as pressure or pain can be
relieved by the shrinkage. New sur­
gical techniques for fibroids in­
clude laser or electrosurgery. Myo­
mectomy or removal of the fibroid
itself often is recommended over a
hysterectomy.

The
M orrow
C ounty
Historical Society (M CHS)
spring fling recently took the
group on a four day bus trip to
Salt Lake City.
The group left M orrow
County on May 11 at 7:30 a.m.,
with plans for the breakfast to
be served from the bus at a
park en route. They stopped at
a park just west of La Grande
to find the Grande Ronde River
over its banks. There was
nowhere to serve breakfast, but
the members were good sports
and enjoyed a breakfast of
donuts and coffee on the bus
while they watched the swollen
river.
The group then traveled to
Jackpot where they enjoyed
lunch and looked over the
casino; then on to Wendover,
UT., where they stayed the
night. Many in the group used
com plem entary tickets for
lucky bets and slot machines.
The group had breakfast at
W endover, May 12, then
departed for Salt Lake City.
They saw many interesting
sights, such as the Salt Flats.

large columns supporting the
building. The city has wide
streets and many areas were

shrubs.
