NATURE AND SCIENCE, 2021
Fibroids (especially large ones) deform the uterine cavity, compressing the fallopian tubes, making it difficult for sperm to move. In addition, in women with fibroids, in many cases, the hormonal background is disturbed, as a result of which a woman may not ovulate. The factors we have listed can lead to infertility in women.

Asymptomatic uterine fibroids

Best Practice & Research Clinical Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 2008
It is estimated that at least 50% of fibroids are asymptomatic, but this figure is likely to be an underestimate as it is based on women in whom fibroids are found incidentally during another procedure (e.g. cervical screening), and there is little, if any, data from population studies on the true incidence of fibroids.
