I don't think fibroid tumors are harmful...

Hi-
I read the last two messages posted and was very surprised to hear that people had been prescribed medication for fibroids!
I have had fibroids for years. My doctor (and my midwife) have told me they are no cause for concern- in fact most all women have them esp. as the get older... The goal is to shrink them if possible (if they are very large) and this can be done through diet. But I went through a pregnancy two years ago and when I went for the ultrsound/sonogram I could see the fibroids-
They got larger when I was pregnant (as everything does when you're pregnant) but they have never bothered me, my pregnancy was fine, and they have never been an issue. I have never taken any medication for them.
