Patient's question:
I have always wanted a child, but I haven't been able to get pregnant. I went to the hospital for a detailed ultrasound check and found that I have uterine fibroids, which are not very large. The doctor did not recommend surgery, and I myself did not want to have surgery either. But with this, I still can't get pregnant, and I don't know what to do. I'm very worried. Do uterine fibroids cause infertility?Doctor's answer:
