Women with fertility requirements who are found to have uterine fibroids before pregnancy will be treated based on the location, size, and symptoms of the fibroids. If the symptoms significantly affect health, the fibroids are large, or located submucosally, affecting the uterine cavity shape and fertility, doctors will recommend surgery or medication to remove or reduce the size of the fibroids.
