New Treatment And Website To Check

Hi

I am monitoring and waiting for a treatment for my two large fibroids (18 week pregnancy stomach).

This sounds very encouraging. I live in Australia (orig from NY)
and hope this is helpful to you ladies.

I see a lot of women choosing hysterectomy when their symptoms are manageable and no history of cancer.

Please check this website yourself:

Let me know your response.

Hi Audrey!

I don't have experience with fibroids, but I thought that this article was very interesting, and helpful for anyone with fibroids who may be considering options!

Thank you for sharing this; I think it must be very difficult when faced with this decision, and the best thing we can do for ourselves is research our condition until we feel comfortable about our conclusion.

Hi, Audrey,

The laser ablation therapy is an interesting idea, although I noticed that the article emphasizes that it's still in the experimental stages.

You're right, a hysterectomy is a very personal decision, which should be chosen only after a woman and her doctor have considered all of the available options. Good luck to you, as you and your doctor monitor your medical condition.

Best wishes,
Helen
