Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Generally not: A 2.4 cm located intramurally likely would not impact ones fertility. Your doctor should go over the exact size and location. Depending on your symptoms and past history treatment may or may not be warranted. Each fibroid case should be decided on a one on one basis.
