Is Abortion Advisable When Diagnosed With Uterine Fibroids?

Posted on Mon, 23 Jan 2017

Question: Hi, I'm 35 years old , 15 weeks pregnant and just found I have 2 utirine fabroids on last Friday (2 days before the abort appointment) can I still abort the pregnancy ?

As my OB doctor do not suggest it and but didn't tell me what to do, just telling me there is a high risk of excess bleeding. And hospital in CA do not take my case due to 13weeks+ , so I only can go to abort clinic , I m worried, is there any other way to abort the pregnancy ? Or no choice to keep my baby ? What can I do now ?
Please advise ? Thanks

Keeping the baby is better option

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns.

Following is my reply:

1) There is possibility of aborting pregnancy in a hospital.

2) You have to understand the risks of excessive bleeding during the process.

3) Surgical evacuation by curettage is best method.

4) Keeping the baby would be best possible option.

Let me know if you need anymore help.
