When Is The Right Time To Remove The Fibroids During Pregnancy?
Hi, I am 25wks preg with a cervical cerclage. I ve got four fibroids. Two inside the uterus and two outside. I m worried about when I m due to deliver. My doctor said once I m exactly 9mths I will go in for a C section also the stitches removed and the fibroids inside removed. My concern is fibroids removal come with huge bleeding. Is my doctor right? What should I be scared of?

Hello dear thanks for trusting health care magic.
Yes your gynecologist is right in saying so.
Better get it removed after 6 weeks postpartum.
Removal during cesarean section is alright in case of single fibroid but in multiple fibroids there is risk of excessive bleeding and even hysterectomy.
