A member asked:
Can vagifem pessary 10mg (vaginal tablet) increase size of fibroids even after menopause? i am 69 and having a scan as they suspect fibroid increased!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vagifem pessary: Any source of estrogen can increase the size of fibroids, but if you did not have problems with fibroids prior to menopause, it is not likely that a "10 mg. Vagifem" will stimulate fibroid growth to the point where one has symptoms or discomfort. The scan will determine the true cause of this.
