Pregnancy is still very possible even when the woman has uterine fibroids.

But it's not recommended to try and become pregnant if the woman does have uterine fibroids because the woman is more likely to experience complications during the pregnancy and the birth of the baby.

Miscarriage, early labor and delivery, abnormal fetal position, and excessive bleeding right after delivery are all some high risks associated with trying to have a baby when you have uterine fibroids.
