Hello there, thanks for posting the query. Fibroids are very common benign tumours of the uterus and which need to be treated only when they grow very big in size or located in a place where it makes it difficult for other organs to function
( bladder, bowel, fallopian tube), or if it grows inside uterus and makes conception difficult. Your fibroid is located mostly to the outside of the uterus and is small enough and doesn't require any treatment now. It needs to be addressed only if it grows in size as to trouble your defecation then it is important to remove it. For now, don't worry and nothing needs to be done. Hope this helped. Good luck!
