Can uterine fibroids cause miscarriages? |
I have had 2 miscarriages in the past year. :( One in October of 2006 and just been treated for another. I have had 2 pregnancies resulting with no complications and healthy babies. During my pregnancy with my son who was born in July 2004, I found out I had uterine fibroids which caused lots of pain during the pregnancy, especially as my tummy expanded! I have had no symptoms ever since but am wondering if this could be related to the previous miscarriages? The doctor wants to remove them surgically but I want more children. I have 4 fibroids on the outter part of the utereus about the size of key limes as he described. Any one ever had this problem who went ahead with the surgery and then had successful births? And is it possible that they are causing the miscarriages? Thanks in advance for you help! Fibroids are normally benign in nature. However they usually tend to increase in size during your period and during pregnancies because of hormones. It is possible that if your fibroid get large enough for the fetus not to be able to grown and breathe leading to miscarriages. I am pretty sure that the whole uterus doesnt have to be removed with the fibroid surgery, they can just remove the fibroids, so in theory you should still be able to have more children. I'm so sorry for your lost. My mother had uterine fibroids when she delivered my brother and they were removed. She then went on to have my youngest brother and he was born happy and healthy. I think it's possible but I would suggest you ask your doctor about your specific circumstances. Also...as an side note: If you want to have more children in the future, know that "giving birth" isn't the only way to become a mother. Best of luck to you. Life. If you go on the net and search fiboids it will tell you what they are. From what I read you might be safe but only a doctor can tell you for sure. I could be completely wrong ,but it depends on location and probably other items not known. Sorry I can,t help more. web search |
