SR 143 Michigan Senate · 2023-2024 Regular Session

A resolution to recognize October 2024 as Uterine Fibroids Awareness Month.

This Senate resolution officially designates October 2024 as Uterine Fibroids Awareness Month to highlight the prevalence and impact of non-cancerous uterine growths. The measure directly affects women across the United States, particularly noting that the condition disproportionately impacts women of color and can lead to severe health issues, infertility, and significant economic costs. While the bill does not change laws or allocate funding, it formally acknowledges the condition's challenges and urges greater research, data collection, and improved care options for patients.
