Patient's question:
I organized a health check-up for the company. After a thorough examination, I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids. I have been experiencing lower abdominal heaviness and lower back pain, especially during my period when it feels more intense. However, I am currently trying to conceive, and now this is a real problem. Can I get pregnant with uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
Having uterine fibroids can interfere with pregnancy. Patients need to go to the hospital for an examination to determine the location, size, etc., of the fibroids for symptomatic treatment. After treatment and full recovery, pregnancy is possible.Uterine fibroids can interfere with implantation of the fertilized egg and the development of the placenta. The exact cause of uterine fibroids is not yet fully clear, but studies have shown that excessive hormone secretion is the most common cause. The following three behavioral patterns in women are the main culprits behind endocrine disorders, leading to an imbalance where hormone supply exceeds demand.
The impact of uterine fibroids on pregnancy depends on their size and location. Pregnancy is still possible, as I have a uterine fibroid and it hasn’t caused any problems for me. There’s no need to worry too much, but it’s important to closely monitor the condition of the fibroid, undergo regular check-ups, and avoid excessive stress.
