Specializes in Gynecology

Absolutely: There are some issues with fertility in women with uterine fibroids. They usually involve the mass effect of the fibroid and less available uterine lining for implantation. Since up to 70% of women have uterine fibroids, most women with uterine fibroids are able to get pregnant.

Probably: If you are afraid of an "operation" you should consider uterine fibroid embolization (ufe) a minimally invasive treatment by an interventional radiologist. This is performed through a tiny incision in your groin and kills the fibroid from within.
