My recent scan showed a couple of small fibroids and now my mind is racing. We havent started trying yet but planning to soon. Can these come in the way of getting or staying pregnant? Anyone here conceived with fibroids?
I totally understand the worry behind this question. Many women with fibroids do have healthy pregnancies, so please dont lose heart. Let your doctor guide you and take it one step at a time.
I had a small fibroid and my doctor monitored it closely, in the end my pregnancy went fine. Whether it causes issues depends on size and location, so this really needs your gynac to assess. Please dont worry based on general info alone.
I dont want to scare or falsely reassure you since it varies so much. A friend with fibroids had a healthy baby. Get it properly checked and trust your specialist on this one.
From what my doctor explained, many fibroids dont cause problems but some, depending on where they are, can. She did regular scans to keep watch on mine. The key is proper monitoring, which only your doctor can set up.
