Cultural Experiences of Black and Hispanic/Latina Women with Uterine Fibroids

Overview

Información sobre este estudio

The purpose of this study is to investigate sociocultural influences on menstrual and uterine fibroid (UF) experiences of black women (BW) and hispanics/latinas (HL) with uterine fibroids (UF). Examining these sociocultural influences will demonstrate their impact on UF health disparities and menstrual health discussions to improve health outcomes in these two underserved and understudied populations in biomedical and women’s health research.

Uterine fibroids (UF) are a significant public health concern with a lifetime prevalence of over 70% in all women; however, Black women (BW) have been historically understudied and are disproportionately affected by UF and Hispanic/Latinas (HL) have almost been completely unstudied.
