Uterine fibroids are benign (noncancerous) tumors of muscle tissue in the uterus. They are also called myomas or leiomyomas. Fibroids are usually found in or around the body of the uterus, but sometimes are in the cervix. There are three main types of fibroids based on where they are found:
1. Subserosal are in the outer wall of the uterus (55%)
2. Intramural are found in the muscular layers of the uterine wall (40%)
3. Submucosal protrude into the uterine cavity (5%)

Uterine fibroids can reduce fertility in many ways:

Fibroids change the shape of the cervix affecting the number of sperm that can enter the uterus.

They change the shape of the uterus interfering with the movement of the sperm or embryo.

Fallopian tubes can be blocked by fibroids.

Fibroids can impact the size of the lining and the blood flow to the uterine cavity preventing embryo implantation or pregnancy.
