subject: Can Fibroids Prevent Pregnancy? Can You Conceive With Fibroid Tumors [print this page]


If you are hoping to start a family, or add to your existing brood and know that you have fibroids, you may well be wondering, "Can fibroids prevent pregnancy?"

Fibroids certainly can cause issues relating to becoming pregnant and carrying a baby, but very often, most women with fibroids can conceive normally and have a very ordinary pregnancy and birth. However, that's not to say that all women with fibroids have a trouble free experience, so let's look at the potential problems.

Some women will experience problems becoming pregnant with fibroids. Very often, the cause can be as simple as a fibroid or group of fibroids blocking either the cervix or the entrance to the fallopian tubes. It is easy to see why either of these circumstances can prevent a pregnancy as the normal passage of sperm is blocked.

Another issue to bear in mind is that the type of fibroids you have can have a direct bearing on whether or not your fertility is affected. For those of you wondering "Can fibroids prevent pregnancy?", submucosal fibroids, which form just under the lining of the womb can distort the shape of the uterine cavity considerably and disrupt implantation or cause a very early miscarriage.

It is also worth bearing in mind that in many cases of so called "unexplained fertility", women are found to have fibroids and although there may be no apparent direct link, many alternative practitioners believe that it is very possible that becoming pregnant with fibroids can be an issue in a minority of cases.

One thing is for sure. We are not "supposed" to have fibroids. It is an unnatural state and an indication that our bodies are out of balance. Treating fibroids with surgery or hormones is not a good option if you are hoping to conceive but you may like to consider trying natural fibroid treatments which can quickly reduce the symptoms and size of your fibroids, giving you peace of mind before you become pregnant.
