Intramural -- within the wall of hte uterus, may increase bleeding simply by making your uterus bigger and increasing hte surface area to be shed each month, but submucous are the biggest culrits with bleeding Subserosal -- on hte outide wall -- are the other type, and pedunculated fibroids are ones on stalks, like mushrooms >Thank you:) -- M.
