Does Abstaining From Sex Cause Uterus Fibroids?

May I know if abstaining from sex has any relation with uterus fibroids. I am a 26 year old virgin and a doctor at a clinic where I work tells me if I dont have sex I will develop large fibroids. I know he is interested in me but not sure if he is telling me the truth or just want a way to have sex with me. Than you in advance
