I was recently diagnosed with a 1.1-1.2 cm subendometrial fibroid in the upper anterior wall of my uterine cavity. I don't have any symptoms but I'm trying to get pregnant do I need to remove it for fertility? What kind of surgery would be required if it has to be removed? Just wondering if it could affect a normal pregnancy

I'm a bit concerned after our 29-week anomaly scan showed a collapsed fetal stomach. Everything seemed normal during the NT scan, so I'm wondering if this is something to be worried about. Could you provide some guidance or insight on this?

At 29 weeks, a collapsed fetal stomach can be transient, but monitoring is essential. Consult your obstetrician for personalized guidance. Typically, follow-up ultrasounds at 32-34 weeks and regular fetal movement tracking alleviate concerns. Review the ultrasound report and growth charts

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.

A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.

I've noticed some black spots appearing in my vaginal area, and it seems to be getting worse, almost like it's spreading. I'm really worried about what this could be. Could it be a sign of something serious? What should I do next?
