Congratulations on your pregnancy! Unfortunately your fibroids will grow because of your increased hormones levels, and blood flow to the uterus. Stay in contact with your doctor, and continue to watch your pregnancy.

Hi Catz. You should speak with your doctor, but it may be better to treat your fibroids before trying to conceive. Taking care of your fibroid before pregnancy will maximize your chances of getting pregnant and maintaining the pregnancy. Best of health to you.

Hi,
I have a subserosal fibroid, 6 x 7cm, growing outwards.
Would like to have a baby before myomectomy. Do you think its safe?
