Patient's question:
When my husband and I did a pre-marital check-up together, it was discovered that I have a uterine fibroid, but it's not particularly large. I'm currently taking traditional Chinese medicine for regulation. However, since traditional Chinese medicine regulation is quite slow, I'm very eager to have my own baby. Can I have children with a uterine fibroid?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids can still allow for childbirth, but if the fibroids meet surgical indications, it is recommended to undergo surgical treatment. After a period of recovery and rest, consider the issue of conception. If you are with traditional Chinese medicine, you should wait at least one year after stopping the medicine before attempting to conceive to avoid interference with fetal growth and development. Before conception, it is essential to ensure that your physical health is in the best possible condition, which will help enhance the child's health level.
