Hello dimmock

I'm sorry you've not had a response to your post yet. This is a forum for people affected by ovarian cancer so this may not be the most suitable forum to advise you. There isn't a forum on HealthUnlocked specifically for fibroids, but you could try Endometrosis UK healthunlocked.com/endometr..., Pelvic Pain Support Network healthunlocked.com/pelvicpain or Verity PCOS healthunlocked.com/verity-pcos as these forums are likely to have people who also have experience of fibroids. You could also look on the British Fibroid Trust website for information: britishfibroidtrust.org.uk/

Best wishes
