My fibroids are 8 cm & 2 cm and I am currenty scheduled for a myomectomy surgery. Is this the size required to have surgery, just wondering…..

I am concerned that I may have uterine fibroids. My period has changed signifcantly from my norm of 3 days of light bleeding to 1 day of spotting, 2 days of very heavy bleeding (leaking through super plus tampon ever 2 hours), 2 days of regular bleeding and another 2 days of spotting for a total of 7 days now. My period has also changed from every 28 days to every 26 days. Each month my period has gotten longer and heavier. My mother had fibroid tumors and had to have a hysterectomy. It is my understanding fibroids are hereditary. I would like to know about natural obtainable cures that actually work.

I am 31 years old and had a 1 cm fibroid in my uterine cavity. I just had it removed (myomectomy) on Thursday. I am planning on getting pregnant in the next year. My doctor at UCSD prescribed me estrogen for 3 weeks to prevent scar tissue from forming. I was just wondering if anyone else was prescribed this as I hadn’t heard of it anywhere else. If so, what was your experience? Thanks!

Fibroids and treatment (Ladies)?

I just found out a have several fibroids. Yesterday the doctor did an ultrasound after a pelvic exam to confirm his diagnosis. I got a referal to an GYN doctor for treatment and it will be a few days before I get to see her. I was reading on the web the different treatment options and for those who opted for BC did you fibroids come back? I’m 31 y/o with a history of cervial dysplisia. Was curious if maybe I should opt for surgrey. I know I have to discuss this with my doctor but was wondering what you did and would you recommend it. TY.

anyone here ever had bad uterine fibroids?

I think I may have developed a uterine fibroid(s). I’m having mucus and bleeding discharge while I’m taking progesterone, and I’ve read they are about the only "female" issue that gets worse with progesterone exposure instead of better. Also, my mom had one of the worst cases they’d ever seen when they were doing an autopsy on her over a year ago, and I’ve read they are genetic. Does anyone want to share how their symptoms presented? I do have a doc appointment on Thursday.

If she had 1 miscarrige 2 years ago, what are the chances of bringing forth a healthy baby ? Right now she’s possibly only 3 weeks pregnant. I said possibly because she is pre-menopausal and not sure if she’s pregnant or just irregular. (will be 40 years in July). She now feels tingling all over.Act took place 1x on March 19th but she did not see her period for over 60 days. What can be done to save the baby and go to full term at this point? She never gave birth.

Women with fibroids what were your symptoms?

Can uterine fibroids b cured with homeopathy?

how effective is homeopathy is curing uterine fibroids?

I have hemorrhagic cyst and uterine fybroid, and was on contraceptive pills for 7 days. Soon after I had that pill, I felt nausea, and the cyst started to hurt. And it hurts more everyday until I stopped taking the pills. Before taking this the pain that I had was an on and off pinch. Is it safe for me to have this pill.
Is there a natural way to clear the cyst and fibroid?
