Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

Recurrent miscarriage in the presence of uterine fibroids can affect your ability to conceive and carry a pregnancy to term. If fibroids are confirmed as the cause of pregnancy loss, a surgical procedure called myomectomy, which removes the fibroid mass, may be recommended before trying to conceive again. This can improve your chances of a successful pregnancy.

I hope this information helps. For further queries, you can consult me at iCliniq via chat, phone, or video consultation.

Thank you.
