Patient's question:
I am currently 47 days pregnant with a uterine fibroid that has shrunk after pregnancy. I am currently undergoing pregnancy preservation treatment and want to know if I can save the baby.Doctor's answer:
Hello, uterine fibroids are hormone-dependent tumors. During pregnancy, the body's hormone levels increase, which can cause the fibroids to grow again. If the growth is not too rapid or too large, it generally does not affect the fetus. General advice: It is recommended to avoid strenuous exercise and actions that increase abdominal pressure during the treatment period for maintaining fetal health. Avoid mental stress and increase the time spent resting in bed. Once the placenta has developed and stabilized, gradually increase the time for exercise. Uterine fibroids are a common gynecological condition that is prone to occur. During treatment, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients avoid sexual activity during the treatment period and pay close attention to cleanliness. Wishing female patients a speedy recovery!
