General & Family Physician, Dr. Vasudha's Response
Hi,
You have multiple fibroids biggest size is 12 cm. Others are really not very big but total volume of all inclusive is making your abdomen size big. Second issue is of conception. These multiple fibroids might have caused hormonal imbalance and affected your periods. Third issue is your age, you are already 34. Conception over 35 years is notorious for fetal abnormalities.
Even if you conceive, you should be under close observation of an expert gynecologist. In this scenario I would suggest consultation of a gynecologist and needful investigations to assess chance of conception after fibroids removal by simple myomectomy and get treatment for sterility. If not, forget about conception adopt a baby in time and go for hysterectomy.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
