I have been diagnosed with having fibroids, but they are realatively small ones though, but they have caused me some problems (heavy bleeding, anemia, pain). My question is this, could they also the cause of bleeding or spotting after or even during intercourse?

Absolutely. Fibroids can not only cause the symptoms that you have experienced with anemia, heavy bleeding and pain, but can also cause bleeding and spotting after and during intercourse, as well as pain and discomfort with intercourse.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any further questions. Take care.

I understand. Far too often people are left not really understanding their health, and getting little help from their healthcare providers. Fibroids are very common, however, and can be reasonably well tolerated by people. Let me know if you have any further questions. Take care (I called this an "info request" so you wouldn't be charged again).
