Is it okay to leave Benigne fibroids in the uterus?

you should talk to your doctor about this more specifically :)

however, no, they usually do not. in very rare cases, benign uterine fibroids can transform into a malignant cancer.

whether or not you you leave uterine fibroids in depends on several factors. for women who are not having any problems with them (e.g. pain, bleeding), and who are not pregnant, then the fibroids can be left alone. however, if you are having problems with them, and/or they are large in size, your doctor may recommend that you have them taken out. as a side note, uterine fibroids may interfere with a woman's ability to get pregnant.

anything can turn to cancer but not usually fibroids.
