Doctor has found a fibroid in my wives uterus since last year when she was pregnant. After giving birth in June, the fibroid size is 6cm and doctor advised us to remove it in last Dec, but till now we have yet to go for it, as we are very scared. Has anyone here got this experience? Can share with me? Should she go to remove it? we have some additional questions: 1) some people said after doing the operation, will very hard to get pregnant again is it truth? 2) How long it will take for hospitalisation or medical leave?

me myself had gone through one of it. my fibroid was as big as a baby. 25cm. huge! the doc was extremely mad at me because i didnt notice it earlier. i told them its not there until at one time i felt hardening in my tummy. luckily, mine was just above the uterus. my operation was successed and the location was same like ceaserean. 3 months after the operation, i got pregnant and again the doc mad at me because its too soon. and i cant give normal birth. again i cut my tummy for the second time. for your situation,ur wife really need to go for another check up to see wether the fibroid is getting bigger or not and if its really in the uterus or just outside the uterus, just to make sure. and your wife need to watch what she eats. there is some foods that can promote the growth of the fibroid. better avoid.
