Uterine fibroids 6cm pregnancy

Uterine fibroids are a common type of tumor among women, and generally occur in women who have been married for many years. Although uterine fibroids are a type of benign tumor and rarely cause lesions, you should always pay attention to follow-up examinations to control and observe the size and growth of the tumor. If it grows too large, you should consider removing it. In particular, the presence of uterine fibroids still has a certain impact on pregnancy. Please learn more about it below.

1. If a woman has uterine fibroids, it is often considered to be a disease caused by endocrine disorders. Judging from the current size of your uterine fibroids, it is not suitable for pregnancy. And if the indications for surgery are met, it is recommended that you consider pregnancy after the surgery. In addition, uterine fibroids in women usually grow very slowly, but after pregnancy, as the related hormone levels increase, the uterine fibroids also grow very quickly, which increases the chance of affecting the fetus.

2. In the early stages of pregnancy, there will generally be lower abdominal pain, which is normal. Just be careful not to have sex in the early stages to avoid threatened abortion. In the early stages of pregnancy, you need to pay attention to rest and avoid doing heavy physical labor.

3. Uterine fibroids are hormone-dependent tumors. Pregnancy can promote the growth of fibroids and increase the risk of red changes in fibroids. As hormone levels decrease in late pregnancy and after delivery, the tumor will shrink. Of course, not all pregnancies will lead to the enlargement of uterine fibroids. There are individual differences and differences in the nature of the fibroids. The growth of the tumor will not only cause pressure on the placenta, but also increase the occurrence of prenatal complications. The growth rate during pregnancy is fast and the red discoloration increases. Pregnant women should be considered high-risk. Regular prenatal check-ups are recommended, and surgical treatment is not recommended. If you have abdominal pain or vaginal bleeding, seek medical attention immediately.

4. If you are already pregnant, it is not a big deal. You can just have a caesarean section when the time comes. You can then perform surgical treatment according to the symptoms and it will get better. The fetus will grow bigger and bigger. Then we will see if the tumor gets bigger. If not, it is not a big deal and you can have the surgery during the caesarean section. Just invite your family to live together.

5. For patients with uterine fibroids, if the size of the fibroid does not exceed 5 cm, as long as the growth rate is slow and the growth location is not special, there is basically no need to rush for surgery. However, if the diameter of uterine fibroids exceeds 3 cm before pregnancy and they grow larger during pregnancy, the chances of degeneration, miscarriage and premature birth will increase.

6. Uterine fibroids are caused by internal injuries caused by the seven emotions, organ dysfunction, qi stagnation and blood stasis. Modern medical research has found that the amount of estrogen receptors in fibroid tissue is higher than that in normal uterine muscle tissue. This suggests that the occurrence of uterine fibroids is related to endocrine disorders caused by long-term excessive estrogen levels. At the same time, hormone metabolism is regulated by higher nerve centers, so the activity of nerve centers may also play an important role in promoting this disease.
