Q: can a 1cm fibroid cause symptoms?

not necessarily: It would depend on where it is located, but not usually.

Q: anterior fibroid measuring 3.5cm ?

Not enough info: Fibroids are very common benign tumors. They are found in a woman's uterus and can be discovered during a routine pelvic exam or pelvic ultrasound. If there are no symptoms (exs. Heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, increased urinary frequency) no treatment is necessary unless it is determined that the fibroid is preventing a fertility patient from getting pregnant or causing her to miscarry.

No: If i understand you correctly, you're asking if it's okay to have an intrauterine contraceptive device and a fibroid at the same time, and the answer to that is yes, it's definitely okay to have the iud in place.

Question 2

how to cure fibroid?

Accepted Answer

Surgery: The only way to get rid of fibroids is by surgery. One could take medication, such as birth control pills, to reduce side effects from fibroids if they have side effects like heavy bleeding or cramps. Fibroids are a complex topic, so it is best to talk to a gynecologist about options for treatment for an individual patient.

Question 3

is 5.8 cm fibroid large?

Accepted Answer

Fibroid Size.: That is a 2.28 inch fibroid.  I don't know if there is an official size cut off to determine 'large'. However, it certainly isn't as big as some fibroids - they can be the size of a mellon.

Question 4

does 2cm fibroid cause pain?

Accepted Answer

Unlikely: I would look for other causes.

Question 5

what is the curse of fibroid?

Accepted Answer

Fibroid=pelvic pain: Fibroid tumors (uterus muscle tumors) are a common cause of pelvic pain.  Location of fibroids also contribute to the many symptoms they cause. If a fibroid is near the cervix, dyspaurenia (painful sex) may occur. Fibroids near the lining of the uterus cause increased vaginal bleeding during periods and decreased fertility. A gynecologist can diagnose fibroids with ultrasound and treat accordingly.

Question 6

can a 1cm fibroid be removed?

Accepted Answer

Observation: It should simply be observed unless it is causing significant bleeding.

Question 7

what is a degenerated fibroid?

Accepted Answer

Dying fibroid: When a fibroid outgrows its blood supply, areas of it can die off. This event can be very painful to a patient, even causing her to go to the Emergency Room. For degenerating fibroid(s) on the right side, this can even simulate appendicitis. Degenerating fibroids often eventually calcify which can be detected on pelvic imaging (exs. x-ray, CT scan, ultrasound).

Question 8

what is a benign fibroid adanoma?

Accepted Answer

Benign breast tumor: A benign fibroadenoma is the most common breast tumor and is more common in women <30 years of age. It is a solitary, solid, mobile mass with well-defined edges, and the size may vary with your menstrual cycle. A fine needle biopsy confirms the benign nature, and treatment is usually surgical excision.
