Fibroids What to Track and Say at Appointments | Violet Sheet | Fillable and Printable PDF
Because “just periods” doesn’t explain what you’re living with.
This printable Violet Sheet package is designed to help women advocate for themselves when fibroid symptoms are brushed off as normal menstrual pain. Fibroids affect Black women at higher rates and often more severely — yet heavy bleeding, pelvic pressure, and fatigue are routinely dismissed.
In appointments where symptoms can feel hard to quantify, this guided tool helps you document patterns, describe your experience clearly, and request the treatment options that fit your life.
Built using the Rooted in Violet ROOT Framework, this resource is especially designed to support Black women and women of color navigating fibroid care where concerns are too often minimized.
Inside this printable toolkit: ✔ symptoms checklist (bleeding, pain, bladder/bowel changes, fertility concerns) ✔ pattern and family history tracking prompts ✔ advocacy language worksheet ✔ treatment outline (options, risks, recovery, fertility considerations) ✔ follow-up section with ready-to-use advocacy script ✔ printable PDF instant download
Perfect for:
women experiencing heavy bleeding, pelvic pain, or pressure
women concerned their symptoms are being minimized
Black women advocating for equitable reproductive care
women weighing treatment or fertility considerations
anyone wanting structured language for a dismissive appointment
What this toolkit helps with This package helps you:
document symptoms and patterns your provider needs to see
turn what you’re feeling into fact-based language
ask about treatment options, risks, and recovery times
request culturally competent care
walk in prepared and walk out heard
Created by Rooted in Violet & Co., this Violet Sheet is designed to support women in getting fibroid symptoms taken seriously the first time, not the fifth.
