#113 - Uterine Fibroids Awareness: Pregnancy & Uterine Fibroids | Feven Amare (Philip Togni Ca' Togni Sweet Red)

Send us Fan MailUterine fibroids are a very common finding in women of reproductive age. The majority of fibroids do not change their size during pregnancy, but one-third may grow in the first trimester. Although the data are conflicting and most women with fibroids have uneventful pregnancies, the weight of evidence in the literature suggests that uterine fibroids are associated with an increased rate of spontaneous miscarriage, preterm labor, placenta abruption, malpresentation, labor dystocia, cesarean delivery, and postpartum hemorrhage.About Our Guest:Feven graduated in 2021 with her Bachelors of Social Work.
