HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Fibroid is not a contraindication for ivf. A contraindication is a reason that a procedure cannot be done or a medication cannot be used.
IVF can still be done in persons with fibroids. A study was done comparing women with and without fibroids, it found that there was no significant difference between groups.
If your doctor believes you are a candidate for the procedure then you should consider it.
I hope this helps
