Article: For many women, fibroids will not cause any symptoms. Fibroids are often discovered during a routine pelvic exam. Unfortunately, in women who do experience fibroid symptoms, these can be painful. Symptoms of uterine fibroids include:  Heavy bleeding and painful periods Feeling of fullness or pressure in the pelvic area Swelling of the lower abdomen Frequent urination Pain during intercourse Pain in the lower back Complications during pregnancy Reproductive problems, including infertility (which is extremely rare) If you are experiencing some or all of these symptoms, you should consult a physician. Visit your regular doctor or see a gynecologist. Before your visit:  Make a list of your symptoms. Include anything that is bothering you, even if you’re not sure it’s related. Make a list of any medications and supplements you take. Write down your dosages. Take something to write on. You may want to note important information during your visit. If possible, ask a friend or family member to go with you. In order to diagnose uterine fibroids, your doctor will need to perform some tests. Most larger fibroids can be diagnosed with a pelvic exam, while some blood tests (such as complete blood count) can help to rule out other conditions. Ultrasounds and MRI are sometimes performed, but not always. Hysterosonography (uterine sonogram) and hysteroscopy (uterine scope) are pretty rare, but may be used to diagnose fibroids that are small or difficult to feel during a routine exam. If you are diagnosed with uterine fibroids, make sure that you fully understand what is going on with your body. Talk to your doctor so that you understand your options for treatment. You might ask:  ”How many fibroids do I have?” ”How big are my fibroids?” ”Where are my fibroids located?” (They could be on the outer surface, the inner surface, or in the uterine wall.) ”Do you think my fibroids will continue to grow?” and “How will I know if they grow larger?” ”What health problems can my fibroids cause?” ”Should I have regular tests to monitor my fibroids?” and if so, “What tests?” ”What are my treatment options?” ”What is your recommended treatment plan?”

Do not approach them to talk unless invited or it is an emergency -- many actors like quiet time to prepare for the role before they go in. In general, it's best not to talk at all, lest you lose focus before you go before the auditioners. Bring a copy of the script or a monologue and brush up on your materials -- you never know what you'll find. When your name is called, walk in with a hello and a smile. Don't fidget, ask for advice, or creep in with hesitation -- you're there to command an audience's attention, and the casting crew is the first audience you have. Be sure to make eye contact, act friendly, and seem like a nice person to work with. Act like you're meeting new coworkers -- cordial and kind but still professional.  Don't bother asking for advice or direction -- if they have some, they'll give it. Do not try to make too much conversation with the casting officials; they have others auditioning, too. If the auditioners ask you if you are nervous, respond no. Instead, say that you are excited. This way, you seem more confident that you may actually be. Most auditions have a small home movie camera set up to record all of the auditions, which allows the director to rewatch when making his/her final decision. Once you've taken your place, plant your feet and keep them there. While you can move slightly to be expressive, you'll show true professionalism if you stay on camera. Don't ask for apologies or do-overs -- once get going, let yourself fall back on your practice and training. If you miss a word or need a quick pause, that is okay. What is most important is not to say "sorry," "can I try that again," or "let me have a do-over." Casting directors aren't just looking for the role, they are looking for a serious, professional co-worker, and this confidence will put you ahead of many other actors who are worried about being "perfect." If the casting director wants to see another take, they'll ask, so don't fret and worry that you blew your own chance on a missed word they may not have noticed. This doesn't mean you always start with a smile and end with tears. It simply means you find an arc, however small, in your character's role. A good scene, song, or commercial ends in a different place then it started, and your job as an actor is to help show this. All roles are different, but there are some common ways to show growth:   Rising Emotion: Basically, you let your energy grow as the scene does, which makes the ending the most energetic or momentous moment of the audition. This can help you both selling cars in a commercial or expressing your passion for an unrequited love.  Sudden Turn or Realization: Find the line or moment when your character seems to shift gears, ideas, or emotions. This line is often the most crucial of the whole audition, as it requires you to naturally shift your acting from one emotion or the other.  Shift and change your body language: Maybe your character is under pressure in the scene and they slowly start to fidget more. Maybe, as they keep talking, they grow confident, sitting up straighter and straighter as they go. Some auditions have another person in the room with you, a casting agent who acts out other roles in the play to see how you handle dialogue. No matter who is helping you, give them everything you've got as if you were acting across from Meryl Streep. Never blame a reader for a tough audition. Like most people trying to act, they will only give back as much energy as you give them. If you're in the role and committed, they will be too. Don't try to change your game plan last minute after seeing another actor, or because you suddenly feel like you are wrong the role. Remember that your confidence and practice are more important than reading a director's mind, and you'll only get in your own head if you show up to please someone. Trust yourself and your choices and focus on you. The rest will fall into place.

One-sentence summary --
Be considerate of other actors who are auditioning. Be kind but confident -- walk into the room like you own it. Stand up straight and stay in place once the camera is set. Once you've started, commit fully. Attempt to show growth and character depth by evolving as you act, no matter how small the part. Treat any audition partners or readers with respect and attention. Stick to your choices and ideas unless told otherwise by the director.
