Can I have children with a 3.6 cm uterine fibroid?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I would like to consult about an issue regarding uterine fibroids. The current examination has revealed that the size of my uterine fibroid is 3.6 cm. Can I have a second child? I had a vaginal delivery for my first child. If I have a second child, will the fibroid grow larger, and will it affect the child?

Doctor's answer:

Based on your current condition, it is still necessary to clearly determine the specific location of the uterine fibroid and its anatomical relationship with surrounding tissues. Under normal circumstances, if the uterine fibroid is simply 3.6 centimeters in size, it generally does not have any impact on normal fertility. Therefore, it is still necessary to implement periodic follow-up examinations. If the uterine fibroid is within the uterine cavity, it may affect normal function, and surgical treatment should be promptly implemented. In addition to treating the uterine fibroid, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood at all times to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
