A member asked:
I have a 1.9 cm fibroid and i am 21 years old i have been having heavy bleeding for the past 11 days will i need surgery?

Not likely: A 1.9 cm fibroid will not affect most women at all, and at 21 years there are very few emergency reasons for bleeding. Surgery is pretty unlikely, talk with your doctor for more info! Good wishes.
