How To Terminate Pregnancy While Suffering From Uterine Fibroids?
Hi, I m 7 weeks pregnant and I have a 7cm fibroid as well as two small ones....I want to terminate the pregnancy for more reasons than one..but I m a bit concerned about how this procedure could go especially with the big fibroid...Your advice is appreciated.
Pregnancy can be terminated by use of medications when the pregnancy is under 10 weeks. However, the process needs to be done under strict medical supervision and appropriate follow-up.
Since you also have a fibroid, it needs to be clinically evaluated and you need to plan it's removal. Removal of fibroid can be done by means of laparoscopic surgery.
Kindly consult Obstetrician for clinical evaluation and appropriate management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ashakiran S, General & Family Physician
