At 19 weeks of pregnancy, an ultrasound detected a uterine fibroid. Is it serious?

Patient's question:

60-year-old female has been feeling quite tired recently and has noticed her body isn't feeling healthy. Could this be the result of the disease? Please ask: At 19 weeks of pregnancy, an ultrasound detected a severe uterine fibroid.

Doctor's answer:

If you want to focus on early pregnancy, you need to have irregular follow-up tests. There is no good treatment method. If the fibroid is small, it's not a problem. You just need to follow up on schedule. It is recommended that you have more follow-up tests in the future to see if the fibroid is growing quickly. At the same time, avoid strenuous and exhausting activities, and do not have sexual intercourse. Do not have any psychological pressure, maintain a happy mood, and pay attention to getting more rest during this period. At the same time, your diet should also be light, avoiding greasy and spicy foods. This will be beneficial for both you and the fetus in your womb.
