How soon after having fibroids removed can I safely transfer embryos? (Ask The Egg Whisperer)

In today's podcast episode, Michelle writes in to say, "I am 36 years old. I recently had an MRI that revealed 3 fibroids in the intramural uterine body that is mildly indenting my endometrial cavity. My GYNO has recommended surgery. I currently have embryos waiting. How soon after surgery can I transfer safely and be sure to have it successful?"

Here's what I share with Michelle, and patients in her situation.

What she's doing is really going to improve not only your implantation rate, but it's probably going to decrease your risk of pregnancy complications, like miscarriage and plantation failure, and preterm labor and preterm delivery. I applaud this.

After the surgery, your doctor will share how long you'll need to wait. In general, it can be anywhere from three to even six months. It will depend on the extent to which they went into the wall of your uterus and even the cavity and how long they think that your uterus will need to heal before you're able to transfer.

One question I would recommend that you ask your surgeon is "did you have to enter the cavity to remove my fibroids?" And then the other question you want to ask your doctor is, "is there a chance that any of these fibroids could be adenomyomas?" and to make sure that they're going to treat and remove endometriosis if found.

All of these things will help you with understanding the recovery time and making sure that the surgery helps set you up for implantation when you're ready to transfer your embryos.
