Press Release Summary = This new site adopts a holistic approach and offers women suffering from fibroid tumors the chance to improve their knowledge about the condition in a supportive environment. For additional information, please visit www.fibroidtumor.net.
Press Release Body = Fibroid tumors occur commonly in women aged over 30 years. Despite their frequent occurrence, there are few online resources offering an in-depth and holistic account of the condition. With the launch of a new website, www.fibroidtumor.net, women now have the chance to learn about the symptoms and treatment options for fibroid tumors from the comfort of their own home. Designed by women for women, the site enables those suffering from fibroid tumors to make intelligent decisions about their treatment and overall health.
Site owner, Kristi Patrice Carter, says that she was diagnosed with a fibroid tumor over 5 years ago. It was Kristi\'s own search for knowledge compiled with wanting to help her female friends with the same condition, that primarily motivated her to develop this new site. "Like me, I know several women who have fibroid tumors and they have all struggled to find good quality information about their condition," she says.
The new site offers a wealth of medically accurate information about fibroid tumors. Not only can women learn about the causes of these common tumors, but they can also discover the difference between fibroid cysts and tumors. Kristi's site explains in simple, easy-to-understand terms how fibroid tumors can affect normal reproductive function and the range of symptoms that often occur when a fibroid tumor develops.
Fibroidtumor.net is a simple site, but it is definitely not superficial. Kristi Carter firmly believes that women need to fully appreciate their options before embarking on a treatment plan. Sharing up-to-date knowledge gives women the power to make the best decisions possible. "Since fibroid tumors and the treatment for them can affect a women's fertility, it is very important that she makes an informed decision," says Carter. "My site describes a range of treatment options, including hormone therapy, uterine fibroid embolization and surgery. My goal is to show women that surgical removal of a fibroid tumor is just one of several treatment options. I want women to understand that fibroid tumors do not necessarily mean that you will be unable to start or continue your family."
Even if a woman has a supportive partner and family, there is often no one who understands women's health like another woman. Carter's new site will provide women with a supportive, understanding environment in which they can freely ask questions and interact with other women suffering from the condition. Women have the opportunity to post responses to Carter's articles and to participate in forum-type discussion. Kristi Patrice Carter hopes that this function of her site will enable women to connect with each other and to support each other.
In addition, Kristi Patrice Carter is the proud owner of several other health related websites, many specifically geared to helping women overcome their medical conditions. For additional information about these conditions, please visit www.kpccares.com or contact Kristi at kristi@kpccares.com.
