I have a 9.6x9.8x9 cm posterior intramural fibroid but my menstrual cycle is normal at 28-30 days with no heavy bleeding, pain, or other symptoms. We're trying to conceive and all other pregnancy-related tests came back normal. Should I consider surgery before trying to get pregnant, or is it safe to attempt conception first and opt for surgery later if needed? I'm worried about how the fibroid might affect my uterus for pregnancy.

I lost my hymen and want to get it reconstructed through surgery how does that work and is it safe? I'm really worried about the procedure and recovery, can you explain what to expect?

Hymen repair surgery, also known as hymenoplasty, is a simple procedure that will repair a torn hymen or build a hymen that is not present. It is important to understand that the surgery will not restore virginity, but it will allow for women to tear and bleed the first time they engage in intercourse after surgery.

My ultrasound report shows a few ill-defined hypoechoic nodular intramural SOLs in my uterus, with the largest one measuring 33.5mm x 26.0mm. There's also a small clear cyst in the cervix and my uterine length is 9.66cm. Should I be worried about this? What treatment options do I have can it be managed with medicine or will I need surgery?

The mere presence of fibroids does not mean that they need to be removed. The decision for the same will be based on the symptoms you have in terms of flow and pain during periods as well as the position of the fibroids. The clear cyst in the cervix is a Nabothian cyst-does not need any treatment.
