Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
There is no connection at all between a uterine fibroid and bad breath.
The medical name for bad breath is halitosis .
The reasons can include - poor dental hygiene, dental caries, gum infection etc.
You should consult a Dentist , and go for a comprehensive internal examination.
Please rinse your mouth thoroughly after every meal or snack.
Get your blood sugars tested.
Brush atleast twice a day, and floss regularly.
Avoid sweets, sugar and processed foods.
Use herbs like neem, tulsi leaves etc to chew between leaves.
Avoid late nights and stress.
You can use a good mouthwash regularly.
But it is important to have a dental check up first.
All the best.
Please feel free to discuss further.

Thank you for ur answer dr,I did consult 3 dentist already and the answer is everything is good and I checked with internal medicine drs I was suffering from h pylori bacteria but has been treated 5 month ago ,I did the test again and it's normal now please advice me what shall I do
Brief Answer:
Then nothing to worry about.
Detailed Answer:
Okay, if the dentists have said everything is fine, there is nothing to worry about.
H pylori might cause bad breath, but if you are cured, then again , that is no more a reason.
Also, try and follow the other measures suggested.
Uterine fibroids cannot cause bad breath, that is not true.
Try using a good mouthwash.
