What should I do if I am pregnant with uterine fibroids?

Patient's question:

I had uterine fibroids before I got pregnant, but they didn't cause much pain or symptoms, so I was treated conservatively with medication. However, due to my own carelessness, I am now over a month pregnant with uterine fibroids. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

If the uterine fibroids are not large, even if you are pregnant, there is no need to worry, because the fibroids themselves do not grow very quickly and will safely pass through the pregnancy stage. Of course, if they grow significantly within a short period of time, you can wait until the due date and have a cesarean section to remove the fibroids as well. So there is no need to be too anxious, just have regular check-ups. During pregnancy, it is important to always maintain a cheerful mood. Uterine fibroids are a gynecological disease that is prone to recurrence. During treatment, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to vaginal hygiene and maintain a light diet as the foundation.
