In general, asymptomatic uterine fibers are harmless and mostly go away on their own with time. But, in certain symptomatic and severe cases, untreated fibroids can cause discomfort and may lead to complications like- a drop in red blood cells, fatigue and blood loss.

Myomectomy is the best treatment for removing fibroids without removing the uterus. It is considered as best for women who desire to have children in the future. Women who undergo laparoscopic myomectomy, with or without robotic assistance, have no effect on their future pregnancies.

Women with fibroids >3cm in diameter cause no significant symptoms, require no surgery as they disappear on their own with time. But in the case of large-size fibroids (9-10 cm) or those that continue to grow require surgical removal.

Fibroids are mostly benign (non-cancerous) and are the most common pelvic tumor in women. The risk of cancer in the case of uterine fibroid is pretty low. However, there are certain factors that increase the chances of cancer. As you age, the risk of cancer in fibroids increases.
