AJR 232 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Designates July of each year as "Uterine Fibroid Awareness Month."

AJR 232 designates July of each year as "Uterine Fibroid Awareness Month" in New Jersey. This resolution aims to increase public awareness about uterine fibroids - a common noncancerous growth affecting many women - and their impact on health and quality of life. It specifically highlights that fibroids disproportionately affect women of color and often lead to delayed diagnosis (average 3.6 years) and significant symptoms like heavy bleeding and infertility. The resolution requests the Governor issue an annual proclamation to encourage statewide recognition and support for research into better diagnosis and treatment options.
