Thank you for posting! The issue with fibroids during pregnancy is mainly the fact that they can grow and become more and more painful as the pregnancy progresses. If your doctor says you can get pregnant, then this is likely because it will cause no harm to the baby or to you. Ultimately, it is your choice whether you would like to have them removed and wait or not. Some women find them not to be any problems during pregnancy while others have an intense amount of pain and possible bleeding due to the fibroids. I know it's a difficult decision but 33 is not old and you will likely be 35 or younger by the time you did have a baby if you waited to remove your current fibroids.
