A member asked:

I m 24 weeks pregnant i have 2.8cm fibroid along the left uterine wall. can i eat the normal diet and dairy product because i m vegetarian?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes.: Shouldn't have any effect on the fibroid, or the pregnancy. Vegetarians do need to see that they get adequate iron, vitamin b12, and omega-3s from non-animal sources, if they don't eat fish.
