Fibroids are bundles of tissue that sometimes appear in the uterus. Unlike the normal muscle of the uterus, which is somewhat smooth and soft, fibroids are tough. There are three main types of fibroids, all named based on their location. Submucosal fibroids invade the uterine cavity, occupying the same space a child would develop during pregnancy. Intramural fibroids form inside the lining of the uterine wall, within the muscle. Subserosal or extramural fibroids grow on the outside surface of the uterus. Other types of fibroids include peduncuated fibroids, cervical fibroids, broad ligament fibroids, or parasitic fibroids, which are further away from the uterine body.
