This happens when there is a disruption with the glands in the Endocrine system. A visible symptom of this is facial hair on women's chin. In the United States, an estimated 26 million women between the ages of 15 and 50 have uterine fibroids.

The United States has the highest cases of uterine fibroids followed by Germany and the United Kingdom. Most women with fibroids usually experience PCOS because both affects the female reproductive system. What cause Fibroids? fibroids can be linked to birth control, mass-produced meat (Chicken, beef, etc), some drugs/prescribed medications, all of which contains some form of synthetic estrogen which the digestive system is unable to break down.
