Does removing uterine fibroids increase or decrease the chance of getting pregnant? |
I doctor told me it will encrease the chance for me, but I have heard the opposite from people. Large as 16 weeks fetus. The doctor who performed my surgery told me it could increase or decrease my chances for getting pregnant. The reason was b/c of my fibroids being in so many places(i had 7 golf ball size ones inside & out) they would have to cut and sew in different places that the scar tissue would make it harder. But he was very careful during the surgery and i have minimal scar tissue. So if you are planning on having this surgery done, make sure it's a dr who specializes in preserving the uterus and had plenty of experience w/ this type of surgery. Do your research!!! My surgery was done in April and now I am 7wks pregnant! Hope all goes well! Most fibroids are not an issue. If you have a large one it may cause implantation issue. It depends where the large one is located. I know a person that after she had them removed was pregnant and had the baby within a year. I had a large on removed last Feb and am still TTC #1 increase |
