    Are you experiencing heavy bleeding? If not why are you worried? Dont stress yourself out over this. I would say get pregnant soon. Don't wait because I'm36 now trying and nothing. I took bc so long my fibroids are huge, I'm bleeding like crazy without hormones, and I might hv to hv surgery. Dont wait to its too late.

      Hi there. Your post was 3 years ago but i'm in the exact same position you were in then, but i'm 34. What happened, were you able to have a healthy pregnancy? Do you still have the fibroids?

    I have numerous fibroids, I am much older.  None of them have grown that fast in all those years.  Everyone is individual.  It can be removed by a hysteroscopy if you are getting too strung out about it, but would be better to wait and see.  I hope you have told your doctor the effects on your stress levels.  Please seek more help.  People can have fibroids at any age from puberty onwards. don't let it ruin your life.

      No I had it removed, it was only small, 2 cm, but had a large blood supply and they thought it might have been causing me irregular bleeding. Apparently anything smaller than 10 cm can be removed via a hysteroscopy procedure, where they go in via the vagina and remove them. Although I have numerous that was the largest of them.

      Hysteroscopy is when they can look inside your uterus with a camera and do biopsies and remove any growths if needed.
