Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
No, Infection source can't be fibroid.
There are various factors for infection.
If it is diagnosed, then you need proper antibiotics for it.
Fibroid is benign tumour of uterus and it never causes infection at all.
Your symptoms will improve after cure with antibiotics.
Get well soon.
Take Care
