Doctor's answer:

Hello, it does have some impact. Women with uterine fibroids who want to get pregnant should see a doctor before planning pregnancy to understand if they are suitable for pregnancy and to hear the doctor's advice. If the fibroids are too large, it is recommended to have them removed first, and then get pregnant after recovery. If there are submucosal fibroids, they should have the fibroids removed first under hysteroscopy before getting pregnant. For women with uterine fibroids and pregnancy, it is important to choose an experienced doctor for diagnosis and treatment, undergo regular prenatal examinations, develop a reasonable treatment plan and delivery method, and determine whether to remove the fibroids if a cesarean section is performed. This can also prevent miscarriage, postpartum hemorrhage, malposition of the fetus, and uterine rupture.
