I am 17 weeks pregnant now, just discover that i have this fibroid at my 1st scan i also have a endometrial cyst. My OB was surprise and told me that i was very lucky to conceive. I don't want to believe that it can start a pregnancy and may not continue and end up miscarriage. Just got married last May 29 and blessed to get pregnant after a month, and i am 33 years old, not young 😅.
I better stop watching this kind of video then.😂
To other people commenting here, let's stop stressing ourselves, stress destroys everything.
May God bless us all. ❤❤❤

I followed the "jiney courthheyu plan" when my partner and I made the decision it was time for a baby. Numerous lives have become better due to this plan. I discovered that I was getting pregnant after 3 months of following the formula and eating a healthy diet plan. Despite being in the older parental age set, this particular program has changed my whole life around.?

I had a myomectomy like 8 years ago and I think some are back. I read online that there is a chance they will return. Can you please give me information on what should I do and is there any other treatment like medicine that shrinks fibroids.

This video was helpful. I didn't know anything before...I have over 7 fibroids. I got the first one when I was about 18 and know it because I recently just went for a scan and the doctor told me from the size of my fibroids they hsve been there for almost 20 years. I have never had any effects till now & even today.. I am 28 years old now & and right now I am having so much abdominal pain that is worrying me..at first I thought it was because of my periods but the periods are almost done but the usually half a day pain is just increasing for 4 days straight now...en it doesn't feel like period cramps it feels like little wild puppies bouncing and biting all around each one of those 7+ fibroids.
The pain is too much & non stop. I cant sit, can't lie down, can't walk around that is why i came looking online.... someone please help me..just comment maybe now.. please, please, pleeeease🙏

Question: I have a 13 cm pedunculated fibroid and I may be pregnant. If I am, what are my chances of miscarrying?

[Goldengurl]

I think I have fibroids😢 I've dealt with heavy periods for years and have been struggling to get pregnant for years. My periods last almost 7 days. Sometimes I get it twice a month or I skip a month. Never had a regular period.
