A member asked:

How can a predunculated fibroid affect myself, or the ability to carry a child to term?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It will: Only affect you if it is very large. Otherwise a pedunculated ( has a stalk) fibroid may be the best kind, if there is a best kind, because it doesnt interfere with the uterine cavity. If concerned, those type can sometimes be removed laparoscopically, if it's an option and you desire it's removal.
