Will uterine fibroids affect fetal development?

With the improvement of living standards, women's attention to gynecological diseases has also increased. There are many common gynecological diseases in daily life, and uterine fibroids is one of them. Many women may have only heard of diseases such as uterine fibroids, but do not know much about it. In fact, uterine fibroids are one of the most common malignant tumors in the female urinary system. They are related to the level of estrogen in women's bodies, and their incidence rate increases with age. However, because the symptoms of some uterine fibroids are not obvious, many women don’t even know that they have uterine fibroids. So what effects do uterine fibroids have on women? Will it affect the growth and development of the fetus? Let's take a look at the article below.

The first thing we need to establish is how the patient got a disease like uterine fibroids. The causes of uterine fibroids are generally related to the patient's body's estrogen metabolism level, genetic factors, and marital disharmony or infertility. It is more common in women aged 30-50. For pregnant women, if they find out that they have uterine fibroids in the late pregnancy, but the uterine fibroids are not large, it will have little impact on the development of the fetus. However, pregnant women must go to the hospital for regular check-ups so that doctors can promptly grasp the growth and development of the fetus and tumor.

We mentioned above that if the uterine fibroids are relatively small, the impact on the development of the fetus will not be significant. But if the patient suffers from severe uterine fibroids, it is another matter. If the patient's uterine fibroids are too large, miscarriage, transverse fetal position, dystocia, excessive postpartum hemorrhage, and puerperal infection may occur. Therefore, patients must go to the hospital for regular check-ups in a timely manner and actively receive treatment under the guidance of a doctor. If the patient has severe uterine fibroids, it will have a certain impact on the development of the fetus, because with the development of time, the tumor in the body will grow together with the fetus, which will affect the fetus.

In general, female friends should pay attention to diseases such as uterine fibroids. Especially for pregnant women, they must go to the hospital regularly for prenatal checkups to prevent physical abnormalities from having adverse effects on the development of the fetus. If you already have uterine fibroids, don't be too anxious. Actively treat it under the guidance of a doctor and maintain a happy mood. It is very likely to be cured and will not have a significant impact on the development of the fetus.
