My wife has a 123100mm intramural fibroid and we're exploring non-surgical treatment options. Since we recently got married and want to have kids, I'm worried about complications if surgery is needed some say it could cause scarring and infertility. Is uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) a safe option for us? Would it affect future pregnancies?

MRI-guided focused ultrasound (FUS) is a noninvasive treatment option for uterine fibroids that destroys fibroids while preserving the normal uterus. Focused high-frequency, high-energy sound waves are used to target the proteins in fibroids, until they are destroyed.

Question

Is there a problem if you are bleeding but not on your period?

My mother has been dealing with recurring bleeding for the past 5 years, and it keeps happening every year. Each time, medications like Pause MF or Sevista stop the bleeding, but now the doctor prescribed Pause MF and Deviry 10mg. The doctor is suggesting open surgery to remove her uterus instead of laparoscopy. I've attached the reports what would you recommend in this situation? Is open surgery the only option or could laparoscopy still be considered?
