If i have a fibroid removed, will that change my fertility?

It could.: A myomectomy could increase your fertility if the fibroid was blocking your tubes or distorting your endometrial cavity.

Maybe: Some women have fibroids removed with the specific goal of improving their fertility. In some patients with small numbers of fibroids in good locations, this works well. Women who have lots and lots of fibroids probably have only modest chances of improving their fertility by having the fibroids removed.
