Fibroids anyone?

If you have had fibroids, please come in. I've recently been diagnosed with a submucousal fibroid that has been attributed as the cause for my losses, but have gotten conflicting opinions on what to do, and the waiting is killing me. Would love to know your timeline/treatment/anything else you'd like to share. TY ladies!

I have fibroids. I have seen 2 gyns and 1 perinatalogist about them, no one thought mine were an issue. I am still concerned, however, so I am seeing an RE in a couple of weeks. @ImJessesGirl‌ just had hers removed.

In 2012, I had two very large fibroids removed from my uterus. They were submucuosal as well, causing significant pain and heavy bleeding during my period. Not even birth control could control the symptoms. I had them removed via laparoscopic surgery using the Davinci Robot. I stayed on birth control as I was not TTC. When I got pregnant in May of this year, I had assumed all was well, because we got pregnant immediately and I never had any pain, discomfort, bleeding issues, etc as I did with the fibroids in 2012. Well, at my 8 week appt, a "ton" of fibroids were discovered on my ultrasound. Baby was still there and had a (very weak) heartbeat. Two weeks later, my mmc was discovered. I was referred to a fertility specialist (also an RE) and he determined that, while my fibroids were likely not the cause of the loss, as the loss happened too early for it to be the result of the fibroids, the fibroids had to come out because one in particular was worrisome for future pregnancies due to its location.
I had those about 8 fibroids ranging in size. All but two were removed.
