Abstract: Background: The most prevalent pelvic tumors are uterine fibroids, which significantly increase morbidity among women of reproductive age.Aim: This study significantly focused on enrolling and analyzing clinical findings related to the extent of uterine fibroids’ impact on pregnant women, as well as evaluating the general health quality of life at patients.Methods: A total of 64 pregnant women with fibroids were recruited. The age of the affected women ranged from 20 to 40 years during the period from January 2023 to January 2024. This study recorded the clinical outcomes of the mother and fetus and assessed the patients’ quality of life.ResultsOur results found that patients with ages < 30 years had 68.75%, and patients with ages ? 30 years had 31.25%. The most common types prevelant in this study were intramural of 50% of patients and subserosal of 25%, and the site was anterior wall fibroid of 59.38% of patients, posterior wall of 23.44%, and lateral wall of 17.19% of patients, where complications were premature rupture of membranes, got 7 cases, threatened preterm got 6 cases, and malpresentation got 6 cases.ConclusionThis study confirmed that uterine fibroids negatively affect the quality of life of pregnant women in the long term, which results in an increased mortality rate
