I have one medium-sized one (about the size of one of my ovaries) and it had to be confirmed by ultrasound. It's a good idea to see a doctor, as the symptoms of fibroids could also be symptoms of other, more serious disorders. For me, the most significant impact of it has been horribly painful periods. If I ever decided to have children it might keep me from conceiving or carrying to term, but that's not really an issue right now.

Best of luck - probably a good idea to get it checked out soon.
