Does a long uterine fibroid pose a risk to life during childbirth?

Patient's question:

39-year-old woman feels some discomfort in her body, but doesn't know what's wrong. Please ask: Will giving birth with uterine fibroids be life-threatening?

Doctor's answer:

You can normally get pregnant, which proves that fibroids may be located in the subserosal layer of the uterus, and fibroids may grow significantly as the pregnancy progresses, but there won't be too much danger. You should pay attention to rest, have regular check-ups, and if you feel any discomfort in the late stages of pregnancy, go to the hospital for a thorough examination in time. The doctor may advise you to have an early cesarean section and remove the fibroid. Do not have any psychological stress, maintain a cheerful mood, and pay attention to getting more rest during this period. At the same time, your diet should be light, avoiding greasy and spicy foods, which will be beneficial for both you and the fetus in your womb.
