Widespread pain, exhaustion and irregular sleep patterns are the primary symptoms of the common chronic illness known as Fibromyalgia. The main symptom is chronic generalized pain that lasts for at least three months. Fibromyalgia is a widespread and incapacitating illness.

Objective: To calculate epidemiology and to identify modifiable risk factors of Fibromyalgia among women.

Methodology: Descriptive Cross-sectional study was conducted in Gujrat and Gujranwala among 203 females. In this study, females between the ages of 18 to 49 years were enrolled via non-probability convenient sampling. Participants who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected. Widespread pain Index, Symptom severity scale and self-structured likert scale was used as a diagnostic tool for assessment. At 95% confidence level, Version 20.0 of SPSS software was used for data entry and analysis. The chi-square test was employed to determine the association between Fibromyalgia and modifiable risk variables.

Results: The results of this study indicated that out of 203 participants of age 18 to 49 years, the mean age and standard deviation was 31.10±10.37. The mean BMI (Kg/m^2) and standard deviation was 23.43±3.78. According to Widespread pain index results 107(52.71%) participants were positive and 96(47.29%) participants were negative. According to Symptom severity scale 143(70.44%) participants were positive and 60(29.56%) participants were negative. Prevalence of Fibromyalgia indicates 107(52.71%) participants had Fibromyalgia while 96(47.29%) participants didn’t. Stress (p-value=0.017), Illness (p-value=0.003), Obese (p-value<0.001), Depressed (p-value<0.001), Body ache (p-value<0.001), Blood pressure (p-value<0.001),

Diabetes (p-value<0.001) were considered as statistically significant with p-value<0.05.

Conclusion:The present study concluded that the epidemiology of Fibromyalgia among women is more. Significant modifiable risk factors were Stress, Illness, Obese, Depressed, Body ache, Blood pressure, Diabetes.
