A member asked:

Does drinking caffeinated drinks or coffee make fibroid tumors grow larger?

Dr. Charles Hendricks answered

Specializes in General Surgery

No: There is no convincing evidence that this increases fibroid growth, all the evidence is at opinion and conjecture level only. All the other evidence on caffeine is probably weighted towards a benefit, so if you enjoy it relax and have a java.
