Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I had 22weeks abortion (pre term labour) due to fibroid( begining it was 5cm, during pregnancy it grew to 9cm) complications. My ESR value is 62. Can fibroid cause elevated esr? I am also experiencing left side pelvic pain (strtd 2 weeks before abortion, still continuing but intensity is less nw)
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Your pelvic pain could be because of abortion. USG pelvis scan is advisable to check complete abortion process. USG will also rule out any other organic cause if present. ESR elevation could be from inflammation induced by abortion process. Repeat ESR after week. I suggest you to consult gynecologist for examination.
Hope I have solved your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
