Is Halitosis Related To Uterine Fibroid?

Hi I have noticed that my breath is bad on a daily basis. I brush twice a day, floss, use mouth wash and carry mints with me. I had my tonsils removed to avoid tonsil stones and have had dental work done uet it still smells.I may have a uterine fibroid. Could that be associated with my halitosis? Please help as this os ruining my life and my career.

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain Uterine fibroids are generally not seen to cause halitosis and can be due to common causes like oral and dental infections, poor oral hygiene, digestive disturbances, post nasal drip, sinusitis etc..
I would suggest you to consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated and he can advise you to get certain investigations done depending upon the suspected cause of halitosis and also refer to appropriate specialist..
As of now you can start gargling with flavoured antiseptic mouthwash..
You can also chew flavoured sugarfree chewing gums..
Drink plenty of water..
Avoid excess intake of high aroma foods like Onion and garlic..
Maintain a good oral hygiene..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
