Are there risks to pregnancy after myomectomy?

For young, nulliparous women, after myomectomy, according to literature reports, the pregnancy rate is 30% to 60%, and 25% to 45% can carry the pregnancy to term. But the patient cannot become pregnant immediately after the operation because there are scars on the uterus from the removal of fibroids. Some fibroids are larger and deeper. After removal, it will be like a cesarean section, and the uterus needs a certain recovery process. If the wound has not fully healed and you become pregnant immediately, there is a risk of uterine rupture. Therefore, you cannot get pregnant soon after myomectomy. So, how long does it take to get pregnant after removing fibroids? It depends on the number of fibroids removed and the size and location of the fibroids. If the tumors are small and located on the serosa, pregnancy is allowed one year after surgery; if the tumors are large and numerous, contraception is required for more than 2 years. In addition, those who become pregnant after uterine fibroid removal should go to the hospital for examination in time and give birth in the hospital. Because there are more chances of abnormalities occurring during delivery, some may require a cesarean section. Because fibroids can recur after removal, examination should be performed at an appropriate period postpartum.
