How do Uterine Fibroids affect fertility?

Uterine fibroids can negatively affect fertility in several ways. Large fibroids can deform the shape of the uterus, making it challenging for a fertilised egg to implant. Fibroids can also obstruct the fallopian tubes or disrupt the normal movement of sperm, hindering fertilisation. Additionally, fibroids can cause heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding, which can lead to anaemia and decrease the chances of conception. At Ferty9 Fertility Centre, our team of experts will assess the impact of uterine fibroids on your fertility and develop a personalised treatment plan.
