Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Is it possible for me to have a successful pregnancy with a 2.8 inches intramural posterior fibroid? I would rather not have it removed.

Hello,

Welcome to iclinq.com.

Probably it is possible as many women conceive and have successful pregnancies. But on the other hand, it is also a risk factor for the miscarriages, and it may or may not interfere with implantation though miscarriages are higher with submucosal ones. But it is not like that you cannot conceive or have successful pregnancies. You have the chances to get pregnant. Most of the intramural fibroids are notorious for making labor process complicated, but as far as implantation is concerned, they do not interfere much with it. I hope it has helped you. Should you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact me.
