Fibroid degeneration second trimester

Hi mummies, anyone encounter fibroid degeneration during pregnancy and can share your experience? Will it affect the size of baby? I have a 5 cm fibroid and it’s degenerating according to gynae. The pain is unbearable even after 5 days. Wondering how long it will take to get better. Currently on HL, and taking antibiotics, anti contraction pills and painkillers. Worried that baby will be affected by the medication.

I did experience it in my first pregnancy. I had two fibroids which grew to 12cm and 11cm. The pain was unbearable. My gynae prescribed me painkillers and advised me to have plenty of rest. The fibroids eventually shrunk to about 9cm. Despite that, my baby was unaffected and growing. He was born at 3.5kg! Just hang in there and follow your gynae's instructions.
