Scientifically nothing has been proved to prevent fibroid tumors. But if we can have the balanced diet and normal weight we can try to prevent fibroids. Eating nutritious food like whole grains, vegetables, adding soy in our diet may help to prevent fibroids

Doctors and scientists do not really know what causes fibroid tumors, so they can't say how to prevent them. However there is some evidence that suggests to much estrogen may play a part. But genetics is the biggest culprit. If there is a family history, you may be at risk.
