Please if I may ask..... During the C-section operation, will the fibroid be removed during that process or only the baby will be removed?

It all depends on your doctor. You might be glad to know that most times, the decision your doctor makes is widely dependent on his training. Most old doctors (who were trained a long time ago) tend to prefer some procedures even when there are more recent and better methods. This is them doing what they're most comfortable with.


THE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTion:

It's possible for a doctor to remove fibroid during a C-section. In fact, it's often really tempting(you can imagine), however, it's not safe, and usually not done. So it's most likely that only the baby will be reduced.

Here are two reasons why it is unsafe:

1. During pregnancy, the uterus becomes very vascular, thus increasing the risk of over bleeding.

2. Fibroids usually grow larger during pregnancy, partly due to pregnancy hormones. Thus, there's a higher chance that a complication might occur.

I hope this answers your question.

Thanks for asking.

Good article
Definitely creates awareness.





The incidence rates are much higher than that quoted for GD, PET/Eclampsia and miscarriages..

Our poor record keeping has not helped identify true incidence/prevalence as most maternal deaths are unexplained... "village people"

So folks these conditions are more common than expected, more so in our population.

Prevention is key, having a good and regular antenatal care is imperative, a necessity not a luxury





Kudos once again to Op!!

My wife was alone in the house (I had just traveled) when she measured her BP and it was off the charts. She was just about nine months pregnant.

I was on the road to Abuja when the SMS came in. She went to our famiy physician who told her to go to the hospital. She was placed on admission and had the C-section the next day, while I was in a meeting hundreds of kilometers away. Mother and child were not doing too well; he came out jaundiced, she was managing hypertension.

Fast forward almost ten years and another son later, I look back at the turmoil and know that had she not measured her BP at that moment, she could've collapsed and been history with the baby! I thank God that didn't happen.

Preeclampsia is something else o.

Omo to read the topic they fear me die, none of us go experience am, our wives go born freely without complications
because whatever we tell ogbor[\b] that is what [b]ogbor hears, whatever we tell ogba ogba go accept, as ojuoro top the river as oshibta surface the stream, we go succeed in all our endeavors,

Thank God for His many mercies!

Say hi to baby for me.

Yes, Pregnancy complications destroys homes. I've seen couple's who came apart due to depression or what do you think happens if miscarriage keeps happening.

uzobaby:
that is just one of thousand cases. .pregnancy complications are not home destroyers..they are issues we have no control over. .do you know how depressing some women maybe on seeing this? ??think about the psychological effect is still will have on women that are having these issues and come across this post

Blonchilli:

I didn't say for every couple that experience miscarriage go through breakup. Miscarriage mostly affects the woman psychologically. And as for the effects it has on women who came across this post I don't think HealthFixHub meant to hurt anyone, it should be read with an open mind. I've learnt a lot from reading this, I'm not married yet but I know a lot of married friends who this article will help and it will help me to when I get married after all when a woman is pregnant I think it's the duty of both man and woman to monitor the pregnancy. Have a good night rest
