The Call: Breast Ironing should be made criminal offence

Practices are acts which become a part of us over time, "an illusion which can empower us or cause problems; becoming hindrance to the growth and health of a community. There has been calls for breast ironing to become a criminal offence in Britain, but this practice also happens in African and this call should be extended all around the world. Let's make the world a better place.#$mile, Oscroyal.
There are concerns more than a thousand women have been subjected to a practice known as "breast ironing" in Britain.

The ritual, which was originally carried out in parts of Africa, involves young girls having their breasts beaten, burnt and massaged in order to stop them developing.

The aim is to make women less attractive to the opposite sex so that they focus on school work.

It is almost always carried out by a girl's mother, in the privacy of their own home.

One woman, who we have called Lara, told Sky News she was subjected to mutilation when she reached adolescence.

She said: "They put the spatula on the fire and then they press it on the breast and yes, it hurts.

"Then it goes weak, it's like melting, fat melting and you can feel the breast going back… one of my breasts is bigger than the other one."

It is thought as many as a thousand girls may have suffered this violent mutilation while living in Britain.

A Freedom of Information request by the Conservative MP Jake Berry found almost a quarter of children's services are not trained to deal with the practice, whilst 15% of police forces were unaware it even existed.

Breast ironing is a secretive and brutal form of mutilation.

Heated objects are used to burn children's breasts. Many then have bands tied tightly around their chests.

Experts believe the ritual can cause cysts, abscesses, even breast cancer.

Fibroid:types, symptoms, causes

Women across the country experience fibroid growth and development in the uterus which cause heavy periods and abnormal large mass that sometimes requires surgery. Awareness on fibroid and its causes, symptoms aanD types gives an insight on what fibroid is.- Oscroyal.
Fibroids are abnormal growths that develop in or on a woman’s uterus. Sometimes, these tumors become quite large and cause severe abdominal pain and heavy periods. In other cases, they cause no signs or symptoms at all. The growths are typically benign (noncancerous). Another medical term for fibroids is "leiomyoma" (leye-oh-meye-OH-muh) or just "myoma".

Fibroids can grow as a single tumor, or there can be many of them in the uterus. They can be as small as an apple seed or as big as a grapefruit. In unusual cases they can become very large.

About 70 to 80 percent of women develop fibroids by the time they reach age 50. Fibroids are most common in women in their 40s and early 50s. Not all women with fibroids have symptoms. Women who do have symptoms often find fibroids hard to live with. Some have pain and heavy menstrual bleeding. Fibroids also can put pressure on the bladder, causing frequent urination, or the rectum, causing rectal pressure. Should the fibroids get very large, they can cause the abdomen (stomach area) to enlarge, making a woman look pregnant.
