Does having a Myomectomy mean you MUST have a C-section when you decide to have kids?

Having conversations with my obgyn about what to do for a 6.5cm intramural fibroid and a 1.5cm submucosal fibroid. They want to do a mini-laparotomy open myomectomy for the big one, and a hysteroscopic myomectomy for the small one. Seems like ALOT of surgery to me. And they mentioned I’d most likely have to deliver via C-section when I do get pregnant. Has anyone been told this? I’m confused as to why that would be the case if I have adequate recovery time before getting pregnant and my fibroids are not super large. I am dealing with heavy bleeding, which is why I want them gone, but surgery is scary and not having options for how I want to eventually deliver is also concerning.
