Patient's question:
Had a first child, and now the two-child policy has been opened. I want to have a second child. The other day, I went to the hospital for pre-pregnancy genetic screening. They said I had uterine fibroids. Can I still have children with uterine fibroids? Will this affect me or the baby during pregnancy or delivery? I'm mainly worried about this.Doctor's answer:
She can also get pregnant with uterine fibroids. It does not affect pregnancy or childbirth. If the fibroids are not particularly large and do not affect menstruation, there is no need to be overly anxious. However, if the fibroids are very large and cause continuous increase in menstrual flow or prolonged menstrual periods, surgery can be performed first, and then pregnancy preparation can proceed, which is also the same. Of course, if they are not too large, it is also possible to wait until the due date and have the uterine fibroid removed during a cesarean section.
