Does Presence Of Fibroids Cause Irregular Periods?

Hi, I am a 46-year-old woman, diagnosed with a couple of fibroids approximately 7 years ago. Over the past couple of years I have had heavier periods than normal with clotting. My periods have been very, very regular - every 23-25 days. This past month I had an unusually lighter period than normal, and shorter only lasting 4 days. Approximately 17 days later I started having dark-brown spotting, slight backache, some bloating and pressue, but then started to have a normal-like period......before freaking out and running to the doctor, could this be due to my age and the fibroids? I am not "gushing" right now or anything, but I am kind of worried.
