I think it is very common to have pain from fibroids. Did your doctor give you more information? I would check back with your doctor if you are concerned. Good luck!
yes, fibroids can cause alot of discomfort, pain - where the pain is can depend on where the fibroid is on your uterus.
I'll bet they can cause pain. Mine didn't (I had more than 20 of them...) and I guess I was lucky.
You might ask this question again on the forum concerning problems of the uterus, since the ovaries aren't involved with fibroids. Best of luck to you!
