I went to my Dr. last week. He did a pelvic and said that my uterus felt a little big. What would make that? Can fibroids affect your cycles? Also, does endometriosis affect your cycles? I appreciate all of your help. This is a great forum! I am going for a U/S today. I will let you know. Thanks again! >Director, Maternal-Fetal Medicine
