Pregnancy Info HOME

Hello. I have a fibroid (4 cm last time it was checked) located near the cervical opening, but a little towards the left. My doctors said they won't know whether I will be able to deliver vaginally or by c-section until I actually try to deliver. I was told that, during the course of pregnancy, fibroids can remain the same size, enlarge, or get smaller. Mine seems to have stayed the same size. I was due 4 days ago and have not had any problems whatsoever due to the fibroid so far. I have read about having it removed, but found that the scar tissue that results from that may interfere with my ability to get pregnant in the future. It would most likely cause scar tissue to form in my uterine wall. A fertilized egg would not be able to implant itself there, thus, reducing the available area for implantation. Therefore, I have decided not to have it removed just yet. I hope this helps and good luck!
