Will Fibroids Cause Complications During Pregnancy?
I have a single intrauterine gestational sac of 5 weeks 5 days along with a small fibroid. My question is is it harmful for the baby? I also wanted to know that if I abort this child then what is the deadline for that? In future is there any problem conceiving child due to the small fibroid?

Hi,
I understand your concern.
Fibroid is a common disorder seen in childbearing age.
- Most of the fibroids do not interfere with pregnancy ,still 10% -30% can have complications like miscarriage, premature delivery, Bleeding in pregnancy, LSCS deliveries.It does not interfere with fetal development.
- If you want to abort it should be done in first three months, under an expert gynecologist's care,
* But I would advise you not to abort, for fibroid interferes with menstrual cycle & so the conception . You can carry on with an expert doctor's advise & care for management of pain ( which can be managed well with medication.)--- Go for a planned LSCS when your doctor decides..
* Alternatively MTP , removal of fibroid * then conception can be planned.
** Your treating docxtor would decide the management that suits you.
Thanks
