Fibroids in pregnancy
🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑🛑
🛑 If you have fibroids, talk to your obgyn when planning on getting pregnant.
🛑 Some fibroids might not be a problem during pregnancy while others would not.
🛑 If they need to be removed surgically, especially because of their size or location , please make sure you have them removed.
🛑 Some fibroids increase in size during pregnancy while others don't.
🛑 When you are pregnant with a fibroid in place, there is an increased risk of you having a miscarriage.
🛑 You can go into labour before 37 weeks, your placenta can remove from your womb wall during pregnancy ( placenta abruption ) and your baby might not be in a good position for vaginal birth to be possible.
🛑 Your baby might not grow as much as its supposed to as there's not enough space, labor might not progress and you might end up having a cesarean delivery.
🛑 You can also have problems with postpartum bleeding as the womb might have difficulty reducing in size after your baby is born.
🛑 Pain is the most common complication of fibroids during pregnancy. This will only be managed according to the discretion of your obgyn
🛑 Don't go drinking all sorts of concoctions trying to shrink them.
🛑 Fibroids are very hard and will very likely stay the same. Your kidneys and liver could however be damaged as a result of these concoctions . Once damaged, there's not much you can do ( you will very likely die ) if you don't get a transplant of those organs.
🛑 Once you do get pregnant with a fibroid in place, nothing will be done about it until you have had your baby .
❗Do you have a history of fibroids? Make sure you have them evaluated before you get pregnant
❗ Not everyone who has had a fibroid removed can have a vaginal delivery. Some require cesarean sections. Ask your obgyn if you can.
