I have a couple of small fibroids that they spotted in my early scan. Doc said wait kar lo and watch for now. Just wondering if anyone's fibroids actually got smaller on their own after delivery?
I have a small fibroid too and I'm currently in my 20th week, feeling so anxious about it. Does anyone else have this? My doctor said it's fine for now, but I keep worrying if it will shrink later.
Haan, many times they shrink on their own because pregnancy hormones reduce after baby is born. But treatment decisions are best left to your doctor, so tension mat lo aur checkup karate raho, haina?
Actually, my friend had a small fibroid and it did shrink quite a bit after her delivery, yaar. But don't assume it will happen for everyone. Better to ask your gynac to scan and check after a few months.
If your doctor recommends checking them post-pregnancy, plan your ultrasound scans carefully within your insurance package to save on out-of-pocket costs. They can shrink, but keeping track of test expenses is smart.
They can shrink, but please don't take it lightly if you experience any pelvic pain or heavy bleeding postpartum. I had a tough time with my fibroid, so please stay in touch with your gynac for regular scans.
Yes, many fibroids do shrink after delivery as hormone levels drop, but it depends on their size and location. Only your doctor can confirm this with a postpartum ultrasound, so follow up with your gynac.
