I have about half dozen firbroids, some cramping and extremely heavy bleeding without the birth control pills. I am 43 years old and through with my child bearing years. My doctor is trying to help me control the heavy and irregular bleeding by using birth control pills. However, now we are considering Lupron Depot or Uterine fibroid embolization. What is your opinion on the treatments that I have presented with thus far? |

i thank god for this website. i had a myomectomy performed by my gynecologist in March of 1997. I was really disappointed to find out that fibroid tumors had grown back in less than 3 to 5 yrs. after my surgery. For the last 2 years, I have been experiencing heavy clots during my menstrual cycles, and sometimes terrible cramping in the lower portion of my back. I have not taken birth control pills in over a year, and still have not conceived.I have told my concerns to my doctor, and he suggested the procedure called a laparascopy. What is the difference between a laparascopy and a hysteroscopy? Do you think I should see a reproductive endocrinologist? I am 35 years old,and i often wonder if my chances of conceiving a child are lessening due to my age. |
