I have a large fibroid ..I was told I cannot get pregnant because it is too large, I have no symptoms, I menstruate normally .. I have no pain .. Im also 53 no changes yet .. can I possibly get pregnant .. should I worry?

what it is and it’s side effects

somebody told me that now a days, there are medicine or juices for curing fibroid instead of going for surgery. pls let me know

I am 13 weeks pregnant and on the day my doctor told me I was pregnant I was actually there to see him about a pelvic scan that had been done to see if I had ovarian cycts and uterine fibroids. Well infact I do have 2 cycts on my left ovary, and a fibroid tumor inside my uterus. I am wondering has anyone delt with this, and how was your pregnancy? How was your delivery? What did your doctor do to insure the safety of your baby?

My doctor said he will check development and placement of the baby as well as size of the fibroid around 18 to 20 weeks. And maybe again between then and delivery. He also said that a varity of things can happen, such as the fibroid could shrink, GREAT! OR, the fibroid could continue to grow and actually compete or even starve my baby, the fibroid could stunt the baby’s growth..ect….
i wanted to add that the cycts are only on my left ovary, and that when I ovulate on that side it never releases the egg, it always turn into a cyct. I have been avoiding having it removed, which is what the gyn has wanted to do for almost 5 years. And that the cycts do not affect the pregnancy. ONLY the fibroid does.

Still no baby after 11 years?

I will try to make this a short story for you.

I have been married for 11 years and I am 36, husband is 45. We have been to several doctors, and spent tons of money, on infertility. Been on everything you can imagine. Husband was also tested and he is fine.

This past May I had my annual exam, with a new Dr. and she found that my uterine wall was thick, too thick; she immediately ordered 2 types of laparoscopic surgeries along with a D&C, she thought I may have Cancer of the uterus. Turned out everything was just fine, except for the fibroids I was diagnosed with 4 years ago turned from 2 to 6 fibroids. But she said I could still conceive with no concerns other than my age.

See when I was 16 I gave a baby up for adoption, because it was the smart thing for me to do at that time in my life. My Husband has a 13 year old from a previous relationship. Should we just give up ion the fact that we just can’t have a child of our own? How can I deal with this, when I yearn to conceive? When I think about it, I’m not young anymore and my husband isn’t either.

Any suggestions?

Mri- guided ultrasound therapy for fibroids?

My wife has a 15 cm fibroid. She is 50 years old and just graduated from engineering school. She would like to get a job, but a hysterectomy will put her out of the market for longer than she’d like. Uterine Arterial Embolization is not an option since she is allergic to iodine used in the procedure.

My question, has anyone had MRI-guided ultrasound therapy for this condition? How id it work? Any leads on where it might be performed (other than Mt. Sinai) in the Northeast?

Thanks

Natural herbs, vitamins or foods succesfully used to shrink uterine fibroid tumors

I’m 44 and had heavy menstrual bleeding. Ultrasounds and MRI showed three small fibroids, focal complex hyperplasia and polyps. I’ve been trying natural remedies which have improved menses dramatically, no longer heavy, nor as painful. Should I still have hysteroscopy or other procedure done, or does the resolution of symptoms mean I’m OK?

How serious are uterine fibroids?

What happens to a woman after having a hysterectomy?

My mother is about to undergo a hysterectomy because of fibroids. What will happen after to her. What should I expect. I mean I will be there for her but are there any psychological effects that might happen, any changes to the body? Please let me know, thanks.
fadded, my mother isnt a b!tch and watch your mouth. If you’re not going to answer the question with a real and sincere answer then beat it.
Thanks for your real kind answers. I appreciate it.
The doctor said she has large fibroids and it has to be done. I am worried. but i know she will be ok once they are removed.
