Removal of FIGO V and VI fibroids with a combined size greater than 5 cm quadruples spontaneous fecundity relative to myomectomy for those with smaller fibroids
In this cohort of infertile women of reproductive age with FIGO V and VI fibroids, almost half became spontaneously pregnant within 12 months after a postoperative non-conception window of myomectomy per laparoscopy/laparotomy. Patients with larger fibroids were more likely to conceive after myomectomy.
