Myoma is a benign tumor. It can be diagnosed by ultrasound of the pelvic organs or during a routine examination by a gynecologist. At the same time, it should be said that diagnostics during ultrasound examination is more informative and accurate. Almost all women who are diagnosed with such a diagnosis begin to panic. This is especially true for those who have not yet given birth, or are already in an “interesting” position. Questions immediately arise: what to do? Should myoma be treated? Will I be able to conceive and bear a child? Is it possible to give birth naturally with a successful pregnancy?
It is worth saying that doctors cannot give unambiguous answers to all these questions, although some information can still be obtained.
The main thing to remember is that uterine fibroids are not the cause of infertility. Moreover, women with fibroids can not only become pregnant on their own, but also safely endure and give birth to a healthy child. The only thing that can complicate the situation is that in some cases, pregnancy may not occur immediately. Sometimes fibroids can compress the fallopian tubes, which disrupts ovulation and makes it difficult for sperm to move through the fallopian tubes. Can fibroids be cured? Doctors say that it is impossible to completely cure it, which is why all modern methods of treatment are aimed at inhibiting the growth of fibroids. With a very large size of the myomatous node (more than 12 weeks) and the manifestation of other symptoms (rapid growth of the node, the presence of additional pathology of the endometrium), its removal is recommended.
Fibroids are not always a sign that there will be any difficulties during pregnancy, but it is still worth mentioning some possible complications: incorrect position and presentation of the fetus, rapid growth of the myomatous node, tumor necrosis, malnutrition of the node, preeclampsia, threatened miscarriage at various times, severe toxicosis.
The main thing to remember is that in any case during pregnancy, and especially during pregnancy occurring in women with fibroids, you should be very careful about your health and do not forget to visit a doctor regularly .
