I have a very well regarded OBGYN/surgeon and he said removing my adenomyoma would be very dangerous. He said my reproductive organs all look very healthy and my uterine lining looks great (the pictures were rather ugly but supposedly good). He said that pregancy shrinks the mass and said that carrying a pregnancy to term should not be an issue. I appreciate your thoughts and perhaps I should get a second opinion from another Dr. I just don't want to go through any more testing! However, I don't want to risk a late term miscarriage either. Thanks for your support...
