Can you have fibroids without a uterus or ovaries?

Fibroids, also known as uterine leiomyomas, are tumors that develop in the muscular wall of the uterus, so they cannot occur without a uterus. If a person has had a hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) or does not have a uterus, they cannot develop fibroids. Ovaries are not involved in the formation of fibroids, but they are part of the reproductive system. Thus, fibroids specifically require the presence of a uterus to exist.


Can uterine fibroids cause problems during pregnancy?

Yes. Uterine fibroids can sometimes cause complications during pregnancy, although many women with fibroids have healthy, uncomplicated pregnancies. The potential risks depend on factors such as the size and location of the fibroids. Larger fibroids or those located in certain parts of the uterus may be more likely to cause problems. Possible complications can include: Pelvic or abdominal pain, particularly as the fibroid changes during pregnancy Breech or other abnormal positioning of the baby Preterm labor or preterm birth Placental problems, such as placenta previa or placental abruption A higher likelihood of cesarean delivery Heavy bleeding after delivery (postpartum hemorrhage) Fibroids can also change in size during pregnancy, with growth occurring more commonly during the first trimester. However, having a fibroid does not automatically mean that a pregnancy will be considered high-risk or that complications will occur. If you have fibroids and become pregnant, your obstetrician can monitor their size and location and check whether they are affecting the pregnancy. Treatment during pregnancy is usually focused on monitoring and managing symptoms rather than removing the fibroids. Dr. Gangwani’s Vascular Clinic provides information about minimally invasive treatment options for uterine fibroids, including uterine fibroid embolization (UFE). If you are considering treatment and future pregnancy is important to you, it is worth discussing your fertility plans with your gynecologist and an interventional radiologist beforehand.
