Will uterine fibroids affect pregnancy? How big will uterine fibroids be to not affect pregnancy?

Uterine fibroids (Hysteromyoma) Uterine leiomyoma, also known as uterine leiomyoma, is the most common benign tumor of the female genitalia. Most of them are asymptomatic, and a few of them present with vaginal bleeding, abdominal tumors, and compression symptoms. For example, pedicle torsion or other conditions can cause pain, which is common in multiple uterine fibroids. Many female friends pay more attention to this issue after suffering from uterine fibroids, worrying that it will affect women's pregnancy. The following experts will introduce in detail so that female friends can understand the reasons why uterine fibroids affect pregnancy.

Experts say that uterine fibroids with a diameter of less than 2 cm are subserosal fibroids, which have little effect on pregnancy and can be considered pregnant. If a woman has uterine fibroids before pregnancy, with a diameter greater than 3 cm and still growing during pregnancy, it can lead to miscarriage or premature birth, so timely treatment is required.

Uterine fibroids that affect pregnancy usually have the following points:

1. Large intramural fibroids cause deformation of the uterine cavity, affecting the implantation of the fertilized egg and fetal development.

Fibroids grow under the mucosa of the uterine cavity, just like foreign bodies in the uterine cavity, mechanically hindering the implantation of the fertilized egg.

3. Fibroids growing in the broad ligament and uterine horn will, to a certain extent, compress the fallopian tube and cause it to twist, hindering the movement of the fertilized egg and the function of the fallopian tube umbrella, leading to infertility.

4. Cervical fibroids can compress the cervical canal, hinder the smooth movement of sperm, or change the position of the cervical canal, causing the neck to deviate from the posterior semen pool, which is not conducive to the rise of sperm.

Through the above introduction, we hope that our introduction can be helpful to female friends, let female friends understand the reasons why uterine fibroids affect pregnancy, and let female friends pay attention to the treatment of uterine fibroids.
