Yes : Yes this does occur. However, it is not a safe situation, and for this reason, the fibroids should be removed/treated asap. The concern here is anemia. Make sure you follow up with your doctor right away for treatment. All the best.

Agree with Dr J: While waiting for definitive treatment take iron and multivitamins to prevent anemia.
