Aim: Few studies have investigated the role of the GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes in uterine leiomyoma. Therefore, in the current study the distribution of these genotypes in Iranian women and susceptibility to uterine leiomyoma was investigated.

Methods: Blood samples of 50 patients with uterine leiomyoma and 50 healthy individual controls were collected in this cross-sectional study.
