Can uterine fibroids cause miscarriage?

Uterine fibroids in pregnant women may lead to miscarriage, depending on the size and severity of the fibroids.

1. It can cause miscarriage: When a pregnant woman suffers from uterine fibroids, the intramural fibroids enlarge the pregnant woman's uterus, causing the uterine cavity to bend and deform, and the area of ​​the endometrium to increase; the submucosal fibroids themselves grow in the uterine cavity, just like foreign bodies in the uterine cavity that stimulate the uterus, promote its spasmodic contraction, and cause miscarriage.

2. Will not cause miscarriage: Uterine fibroids are very small, and if they grow on the uterine cavity or cervix, they may also cause miscarriage in pregnant women. When uterine fibroids are severe and require abortion, it is recommended to perform the operation before three months of pregnancy to minimize the risk. If it is performed after three months of pregnancy, which is the most critical period of pregnancy, it is guaranteed whether the fetus will stay during this period. In this case, abortion is not recommended to avoid endangering the life of the pregnant woman.

When pregnant women suffer from uterine fibroids during pregnancy, they must ensure the quality of their daily sleep, but they must also supplement nutrition to ensure the nutrition of the fetus. If there are no obvious serious problems with the fibroids during this period, it is generally necessary to control the growth of the fibroids and ensure the health of the fetus to avoid miscarriage.
