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.

Hello and thank you for asking

In your case if you are symptomatic in my opinion it’s better to have removal surgery of the biggest fibroid.

The quality of life it’s very important for the patients.
