Are uterine fibroids cancerous or do they increase the risk of cancer?

Uterine fibroids are almost always benign and do not increase the risk of uterine cancer. However, in very rare cases, a fibroid may be cancerous. The chances are extremely low—less than 1 in 1,000 for a cancerous transformation known as leiomyosarcoma. There is no evidence that having fibroids raises the likelihood of developing other types of cancer either.

Doctors generally recommend monitoring fibroids to ensure no rapid growth, which could indicate an unusual change. If a fibroid grows unusually fast or presents with abnormal symptoms, further investigation may be warranted. Still, most women with fibroids live with them safely without any increased cancer risk.
