They can be removed safely but most do go away on their own. My mom's was not a small one though, it was like the size of a baseball. It was causing her to bleed really heavy and they ended up removing it and she got a hysterectomy. She never had any issues with cramps though. Never had them, not even once. So who knows. Might just be an issue with my diet. I know when I eat more beans and nuts and less dairy, my cramps aren't an issue. In fact, when I was on a bean kick, I had a cycle where I had no cramps at all. For all I know it is a B vitamin deficiency of some kind.
I mean really it can be fibroids, endo, pcos or a vitamin issue. Hormones be crazy. I just know one doctor thought I had endo when I was younger but I never got checked for it. If it is that, it would explain a lot. Especially with my back pain. I guess the tissue can bother the sciatica nerve.
