Are Fibroid Tumors Cancerous
Fibroid Tumor and having children?
My cousin has been trying to get pregnant for 3 years. She found out Monday that she has cysts in her tubes and a mass in her uterus. The doctor says he’s 99% sure its not cancerous. She told me that it was a fibroid tumor. Can this cause her never to have children or can it be taken out and everything be fine?
Only her doctor can determine how this will affect her fertility. Many people have had fibroid tumours removed and went on to have children so it doesn’t mean she won’t have kids though.
