A member asked:

Can one give birth with fibroid?

Dr. Bryan Treacy answered

Specializes in Gynecology

Yes: Fibroids are common, reported to occur in up to 70% of all women. Vaginal birth is possible depending upon location & size of the fibroid(s). There are instances where fibroid location & size prevent descent of the baby which may result in a recommendation for cesarean delivery.
