Intra means inside, so intramural fibroids are those that are found inside the uterine wall. These are the most common type of fibroid tumor.

Since they develop and grow inside the uterine wall, the result is that they make the uterus feel as if it is larger.

Their growth can cause pressure both on the bladder as well as the uterus. Other symptoms include:

  • Pelvic and back pain
  • Excessive bleeding
  • Frequent urination
  • They may also be responsible for miscarriages and infertility issues.

Because intramural fibroids are those that develop within the uterine wall, depending on wherether they are close to the endometrium or close to the outside of the uterus, the symptoms will be similar to submucosal or subserous fibroids.
