Can women with uterine fibroids still have children?

Patient's question:

The uterine fibroids checked last year, now pregnant for over a month, don't know if the baby can be kept?

Doctor's answer:

First, it's important to understand the size of the patient's tumor. Clinically, there have been cases of successful pregnancy with the tumor present, as well as cases of miscarriage during pregnancy with the tumor. Uterine fibroids are hormone-dependent tumors. During pregnancy, due to hormonal imbalances, the tumor's growth rate may accelerate, which can have certain impacts on each stage of pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum recovery. Therefore, it is recommended to treat the uterine fibroid first and then prepare for pregnancy to minimize adverse effects.
