Anyone had a tah after ablation?
I had an ablation in july . Went great. never got a period again, and my anemia went away. However now I have pain in my groin and back pain from my fibroids.Also my CT scan and US of Pelvis doesn't look good. My dr tryed to get another biopsy put couldn't due to scar tissue(had one in July when I had ablation,and it was fine). He doesn't think the radiologist are used to seeing an ablated uterus so he isn't real worried about cancer. But since the pain is now getting worst . He is giving me a tah to be safe. Has anyone had a tah after ablation??

That would be me.
I had my ablation in November of 2005 in the hopes of not having to have a hyst (even though I have wanted one since I was in my 20's due to all the problems).
The ablation did not work....bleeding came back furious, pain, etc. I went ahead with the hyst in July 2006, which was a big blessing. Seven female surgeries, whew that is enough.

Anyone had a tah after ablation?
I have had two - count them two! - ablations. First one was pretty good, periods never totally stopped but a significant decrease and anemia went away. Then as the month passed things kept getting a little worse and a little worse. Within 16 months I was back at the gyn asking "What now??" He recommended another ablation - as he felt I could get to menopause with that and then things would settle down. Well, second ablation made no difference whatsover. My fibroids were just too large and too ingrown in the uterine wall. So, about 9 months after the 2nd ablation I had a TAH. That was just 2 weeks ago. So far, so good. I am healing well and feeling pretty good. Although it is kind of frustrating to have gone through all this, I truly am glad I tried the ablations. They did relieve some symptoms, and so often they do work for women. Just not for me. Good luck - I will be thinking of you.
