I Have Uterine Fibroids To The Point That The Lining

default
Posted on Sat, 10 Nov 2018
Question: I have uterine fibroids to the point that the lining of uterus is obliterated. This was determined in 2014 after 2 ultrasounds (regular and vaginal). Back in 2014, the largest fibroid was the size of a softball. I noticed that it takes an extra long time for me to urinate as well. My OB/GYN doctor says if they are not bothering me, that I should not bother them.
