    Fibroids in pregnancy and birth<\/h3>\n

    [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1542803130189{margin-top: -25px !important;}”]Studies have shown that fibroids, depending on their location, may create an obstacle to normal pregnancy and also make it difficult for embryos to be implanted into IVF. In short, fibroids can disrupt the uterine anatomy. If the endometrium is affected, there is an increased risk of autoimmune discharges in the first trimester of pregnancy. Fibroids can also occlude the fallopian tubes.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1542803174109{border-bottom-width: 2px !important;border-bottom-color: #af9264 !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;}”]<\/p>\n

    Fibroids: Treatments<\/h3>\n

    [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1542803167389{margin-top: -25px !important;}”]The size of the fibroids, their number, their location and the age of the woman determine the treatment that the specialist doctor will choose. After the gynecological examination and the genomic ultrasound, the doctor may choose not to remove the fibroids, if they do not give symptoms or affect the fertility of the woman.<\/p>\n

    Removal is surgical, either laparoscopic or hysteroscopic (ie via the vagina) or classic surgery.<\/p>\n

    The classic surgery is done either by incision from the abdomen or transvaginal (ie through the vagina). Many doctors prefer this method when there is evidence that it doesn\u2019t leave external scarring to women, nor it has the consequences of open surgery.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\"\"[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”Articles” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:28|text_align:center|color:%23bca22b” google_fonts=”font_family:Ubuntu%3A300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C500%2C500italic%2C700%2C700italic|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
