I'm 19 weeks along in my pregnancy and just got my TIFFA scan done last week. They said everything looks normal with the baby's movements and measurements, but they mentioned a thick abdomen and poor window. I'm really worried about what this means for my baby. Should I be concerned? Is there something specific I should be looking out for?

My wife has a 123100mm intramural fibroid and we're exploring non-surgical treatment options. Since we recently got married and want to have kids, I'm worried about complications if surgery is needed some say it could cause scarring and infertility. Is uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) a safe option for us? Would it affect future pregnancies?

MRI-guided focused ultrasound (FUS) is a noninvasive treatment option for uterine fibroids that destroys fibroids while preserving the normal uterus. Focused high-frequency, high-energy sound waves are used to target the proteins in fibroids, until they are destroyed.
