Question 1

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 2

large fibroid iin the anterior fundus, measuring 5.8 x 5.0 cm.  posterior body fibroid measuring 3.5cm.  left lwr ab pain.  should something be done?

Accepted Answer

Options: You should see an Obgyn of through your options. Surgical options include myomectomy (removal of the fibroid), hysterectomy, a new minimally invasive option called Acessa,  a radiological procedure called a uterine fibroid embolization and others.

Question 3

6.6 cm fibroid in uterus is that big?

Accepted Answer

Fairly good size : It is @ 2 1/2 inches.

Question 4

is 9 cm x 4.1 x 4.8 for someone way past menopause too large? 9 cm seems very large to me. i have a lot of fibroids?

Accepted Answer

Fibroid ?'s: Large fibroids are unusual post menopause, but unless pain, bleeding and consequent anemia occur, removal of fibroids or hysterectomy is not generally necessary, as attrition from very low levels of estrogen after ovaries cease to function hormonally generally make them constrict in size.

Question 5

how big is a fibroid 4 cm in the inner uterine wall?

Accepted Answer

Silver dollar size.: Sounds like it might be 4 cm. That is about 1 3/4 inches.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

No: A 6 cm fibroid can be removed with surgery.

Accepted Answer

Leiomyomas : Leiomyomas of the uterus (fibroids) sometimes shrink after menopause, but some women have them actually enlarge.  It sounds like yours are very large which concerns me.  I would recommend following your doctors advice, or at least obtaining a second opinion, because it sounds like your doctor is concerned they may compress your ureters which could cause kidney damage.  Please be re-evaluated or at least seek a second opinion as I am concerned by that.

Question 8

what would be a treatment for this diagnosis: 
lower uterine segment there is a 4 x 3.8 x 4 cm partially exophytic
uterine mass most consistent with a large fibroid?

Accepted Answer

: The one your Dr, who knows you, thinks is best. We do not know you.

Question 9

large subserosal fibroid seen in fundal region (11.78*11.02*9.00 cm ) vol 612 ml please suggest best treatment and how harmful it is ?

Accepted Answer

Symptoms or not?: If you are having symptoms then there are surgical, and other methods for removing or reducing the fibroid. If you are not having symptoms, and at your age of 29 then monitoring the growth is an option with more frequent GYN MD visits, especially if you have not yet been pregnant. Talk to your MD to discuss many options which are based on the above scenarios.
