Brief Answer:
Fibroids not a problem

Detailed Answer:
Hi

i understand your worry about fibroids.

Fibroids generally dont affect pregnancy. As matter of fact I see many fibroids when i am doing operative cesarean delivery.

If fibroids were to matter, you wouldnt have got pregnant in first place.

Hence dont worry about fibroids. Practically your pregnancy is safe. Enjoy your pregnancy.
