Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids, a right adnexal cyst, and a hard nodule of about 1 square centimeter on the posterior wall of the uterus. The doctor said it was a uterine adenomyoma. I want to ask how much impact this will have on future pregnancy? Is the aftereffect of uterine fibroids or ovarian cysts more significant, or is the impact of uterine adenomyoma greater (the adenomyoma has not been removed, and the doctor said it can be shrunk with medication, which will not significantly affect pregnancy)? Can medication reduce the impact?Onset and duration of the current illness:
Current general condition: One and a half months after surgery, I feel the recovery is good. When lying flat, I can feel a slightly hard area in the uterine region, but it has already been better than
Doctor's answer:
Hello!As you mentioned, you have had the cyst removed and the fibroid excised, and the surgery was relatively successful. However, your menstrual cycle has not returned to normal one month after the operation, so you need to continue resting. Adenomyosis is when glandular tissue is present in the uterine muscle layer, and it is generally not possible to remove it. Medication can be taken, but the effect may not be certain. You can have regular follow-up checks.
Since ovarian surgery can affect ovulation, it may impact fertility. However, if you do become pregnant, it can be beneficial for the adenomyosis.
It is safe to get pregnant two years after the surgery. Remember this! The uterus needs to fully heal before it can support a growing fetus.
Wishing you a speedy recovery! May you also conceive your beloved baby soon!
