Ask A Doctor

I just feel really alone with these stupid fibroid problems! I'm down and very teary and at a loss of what to do.
15 months ago I got married and we always said we would like children, but while on our honeymoon I started getting sick, and it was some 10 months before they found i had a large fibroid. If they take it out I can't have kids, if they leave it in there could still be complications but atleast it's not zero chance of having a baby. BUT.... to do this they have to ease the symptoms, and the medication helps but there's also side effects. Do you have any suggestions?

It's very important that the first thing you do is to get additional input for your medical decisions from a specialist. Even if your doctor specializes in fibroids, find a doctor in a different practice that has more experience dealing with preserving fertility from fibroids.

With today's technology, there is great hope that your uterus can be preserved and you can have children. You won't know until you get your big girl shoes on, grab your notebook and head off in search of finding the best of the best doctors to provide more information for you.

There is no rush. There is no deadline. Even if you must travel, find a doctor who understands your desire to have children and will work to make that happen for you and your husband.

There is much hope for you. With so many options available for preserving the uterus, there is great possibility for your future.
