The concept of a "safe period" refers to the time in a woman's menstrual cycle when she is least likely to conceive. However, it is important to note that this method is not highly reliable, as ovulation can vary. For more effective pregnancy prevention, it's advisable to use contraception, such as condoms or other birth control methods, to reduce the risk of pregnancy.

My mom has an 8.07.5 cm uterine fibroid in the right lateral wall and her endometrial echo is 10 mm. She's dealing with heavy bleeding should she go for surgery, and if so, would a hysterectomy or just a myomectomy be better? We're really confused about what to do next and would appreciate some guidance. I've attached her ultrasound pelvis report for reference.

fibroids larger than 5-6 cm (about 2-2.4 inches), especially if they are affecting your fertility, rapidly growing, or causing symptoms are an indication for hysterectomy
