Can women with uterine fibroids get pregnant?

Patient's question:

I recently went to the hospital for a thorough examination and found that I have uterine fibroids. Can I get pregnant with uterine fibroids?

Doctor's answer:

How can uterine fibroids lead to early pregnancy needs to be chosen based on the location and size of the uterine fibroids. For example, submucosal fibroids may affect the implantation of the fertilized egg, leading to a second miscarriage in early pregnancy. If intramural fibroids are too large, they may cause miscarriage due to uterine cavity deformation or insufficient endometrial blood supply. Therefore, it is recommended to comprehensively evaluate and test for early pregnancy. However, most pregnant women with uterine fibroids can naturally go into labor. Fibroids discovered after early pregnancy can be removed during a cesarean section. Uterine fibroids are a common gynecological disease that is prone to occur. During treatment, patients are advised not to engage in sexual activity and to pay attention to hygiene.
