    Defo researching online re fibroid development. Can assure you they will say what you will find - that fibroid cause is unknown, approx 80% of women have them most women don't realise they do until they have symptoms.

    Recommend checking the type you have. I have 2 subserosal which are outside the uterus and have been assured they will not interfer with conception as uterus is unaffected. Embolisation is for fibroids in the cavity of the uterus. Some good research on line will help you work out exactly what you want to ask too. X

    Well I doubt they would be able to answer many of them, even given unlimited time, but the one I'd like to know more about would be how to cure them naturally.
