I have a very large fibroid on the outside of my uterus that my doctor has been monitoring in 6 month intervals for almost 7 years now. In the past year my fibroid had a growth spurt and grew to 9.4 x 7.6 x 9.2cm. My doctor expressed concern and wanted to remove it. After receiving a second opinion, I decided to leave it alone and wait and see if it increases in size. The only symptom that I have is the large bulge in my abdomen. My periods are normal. I’ve researched alternative therapies, changed my diet to strictly organic foods and I am now seeing an acupuncturist weekly who says she has reduced fibroid size in the past. I’ve had about 3 months of acupuncture now and I feel as though it may have grown, although I really can’t tell for sure. I’m 33 years old and very concerned as I do want to have children one day and was told by my OB/GYN that most non-invasive procedures cannot be used because they can’t guarantee preservation of the uterous. Given that I have no major symptoms, do you feel I should explore the FAS procedure now or wait it out? |

Dr del Junco Jr I have seen about your services and experience of women who have similar problem like me. It stirs my interst to get further information of the expenses of doing a surgery. I have multiple big fibroids that make me looks like am three months pregnant. I am 38 and have no children and would like to have one. But my doctors recommend that my uterus be removed and I don’t want it to be removed. I’m still a virgin at 38 and would like to keep my uterus. Please let me know what you can do to help me. I would like to know the cost in detail for all expenses that will incur for a surgery to be done wihtout removal of the uterus. I appreciate a prompt reply please. I am deperate in need of your help. God bless you and continue your good work. |
