Abstract

To analyze the possible relation between symptoms (especially pain) reported by myoma patients and objective features of their myomas as determined by ultrasound. Specifically: (1) What is the frequency and intensity of myoma-related pain? (2) Does the pain intensity depend on the number, size, or location of the myomas? (3) Is there any correlation between premenstrual pain, menstrual pain, and pain during sexual intercourse?
