Hi! I just wanted to let you know I just went to lunch with a coworker who had IF for years and also had fibroids. Her IF issue was disconnected fallopian tubes but her uterine fibroids were huge (like the size of a softball) so she thinks that was a factor, although obviously not the biggest one. Anyway she told me she researched fibroids a lot and found that cutting out caffeine & hormone-filled dairy products (like milk) cuts down on them and even reduces the size of ones you already have. She got hers removed surgically but I don't know the details on that.

I don't mean to be like Mrs Advice Giver, I just thought of you when I heard her story and thought I'd pass it along. Hope you have a good day!

    Thanks Caden! It's sweet of you to think of me :) I'm so new to this diagnosis that any info is helpful!! But, man, I sure would hate to have to give up coffee, lol. I'm getting one fibroid surgically removed next month, and I'll br researching what diet, if any, can help shrink the other one and prevent future fibroids. So thanks for the tips!!
