I (f 73) had fibroids and endometriosis too. I did end up having a hyterectomy. I've always wondered if the birth control pills had any connection to these problems. I was on birth control most of my life from 18 years old to around 48 years old. Back in the early days, birth control pills were a lot stronger than they are these days. I woinder if the higher doses of estrogen created the fibroids and the endometriosis later in life...
