Does An Infected Fibroid Require Immediate Attention?
I had a uterine fibroid embolization seven years ago. I have been having a discharge for the last 3 years. Nothing was found until recently. It is puss in my cervic from the fibroid. I now take doxycycline monohydrate 100mg bid and will see a doctor on May 4, 2017. My question? Should I wait or should I veiw this situation as an emergency?

Hi,
An infected fibroid can be treated with an antibiotic. It's not actually an emergency but regular consultation and follow-up are necessary.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
