Hello to my fellow women and Dr.delJunco Jr:
This is to let you know that I am feeling so great! I can’t believe that one year has gone by!
I would urge all women that are thinking about this surgery should go ahead and have it if they can.You will not be sorry that you did. I have not have any problems,only good times in doing what I used to do before I have my female woes.
I have my life back again and it feels great! Thank you again Dr.delJunco,Paticia and all the staff. I remain your friend and supporter,
always,
LaVieta

LaVieta,
I am 8 weeks post FAS and I echo your results. I am doing really well from the surgery and it is amazing how my body had compensated for the fibroids and how much better I feel physically. It’s great to continue to hear wonderful stories. Dr. Deljunco Jr , Patricia, the staff at Temple Community Hospital and the staff at Dr. DJ’s office have been and continue to be a Godsend in my life.

Hello
I would like some help with making a descicion that will affect the rest of my life. I am 46 and have had 2 children. I had a tubal in 1986. For the past 6 years I have had a period every 21 days for 7 to 11 days. 3 days light, 3 days very heavy, 3-4 days light. I recentyly had a D & C and hysteroscope inserted. I have no cancer, but one small fibroid tumor. My uterus has dropped. My Dr. wants to do a hysterectomy. I don’t want one. I would like any information on waht would be the best procedure for me. Would any alternate female procudure be right for me? Marige

Dear Margie-
Our Institute believes in the philosophy of organ preservation-I would not recommend a hysterectomy for someone as young as yourself, or with such a small fibroid tumor. Your fibroid may need to be removed, but it can be done effectively without removing the uterus.
I would recommend that you have your hormone levels evaluated in order to attempt to diagnose the reason for the lengthy, frequent cycles.
