About

Wanda K. Nicholson is a leading researcher in women’s health, with a focus on uterine fibroids, patient-centered outcomes, and comparative effectiveness research. Her major contributions center on understanding how different treatments for symptomatic uterine fibroids—such as hysterectomy, myomectomy, and uterine artery embolization—affect patients’ quality of life and symptom severity over time. As a principal investigator of the COMPARE-UF registry, she led groundbreaking work that has been cited over 160 times, including key papers on the registry’s rationale and design (65 citations) and short-term quality of life after myomectomy (61 citations). Her 2023 study on long-term health-related quality of life (35 citations) provides critical evidence for shared decision-making between patients and clinicians. Dr. Nicholson’s work has shaped clinical guidelines and empowered women to make informed choices about fibroid management. Her research is notable for its patient-centered approach, rigorous methodology, and lasting impact on gynecologic care.
