Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Enlargement Of Lower Abdomen And Breasts Post A Myomectomy?
I had surgery a year ago to remove fibroids (myomectomy) and to remove a cyst on my ovary. A day or two after surgery I tore the ovary by moving too quickly. There was bruising on my side that eventually went away. A few weeks later I began to lose a lot of hair, which has since stopped and the hair grew back. I have been steadily gaining weight, especially in the lower abdomen. I have developed a large ponch, but I have no pain in the area. My breasts have also almost doubled in size. I am wondering what this means, and if I should be looked at by a doctor.

What Causes Enlargement Of Lower Abdomen And Breasts Post A Myomectomy?
Hello, It is seen that patients with breast cancer often are diagnosed with uterine myoma. Since you have a history of Myomectomy done & presently you are having breast discomfort & enlargement, you are suggested to visit a gynecologist. Get physically examined (breast examination, mammogram, breast ultrasound, MRI, Biopsy) done to stay on the safer side. Your treatment will depend upon the diagnosis made. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Nupur K, General & Family Physician
