Anyone ever heard of this before?

Hi all I'm new to this page, I've been quite active on the Hysterectomy page. I had a a 9cm fibroid and a few smaller ones which had been causing me trouble and a long list of other problems for a while. I was offered emboilisation or a TAH I opted for the TAH and had that last week (29th Jan 2015). The next day the consultant came to see me and told me all had gone well but that my large fibroid had been at the top of of my womb and the weight of it had caused my womb to fold over in half and my womb had adhered to my stomach lining, he seemed quite surprised by what he had found and actually said he didn't know how it had happened. Just wondering if I am normal, no don't answer that, just tell me if you have heard anything like this before! LOL xx

As regards Esmya the lining will thicken as you do not bleed. Period at the end of the 3 months was horrendous and I am used to dealing with hourly changes. No more Esmya for me. Only side effect was extreme tiredness. Now I am left with pain and at 54 have no signs of menopause. Having waited 4 years before seeking treatment thinking it was around the corner. Family history tells me this will probably not happen. Yes there are other choices but this is mine. Myomectomy is more difficult more blood loss and they will return. Different choices for us all.

I have a question for you.... You mentioned that Esmya can change the lining of the uterus, but I have not heard this before. Could you please explain what you have heard and why that would warrant getting rid of the uterus? I am 43, have a 9 cm fibroid that has shrunk to 7cm. I still have 3 more months on Esmya and am hopeful it will shrink some more so I can perhaps have a myomectomy instead of a hysterectomy. I have been lucky as there has been no pain (only extremely heavy menstrual cycle that as led to anemia). I have heard that the sexual pleasure for men can decrease after a hysterectomy due to there not being anything there anymore (I have read online that some men complain that it´s like having sex out of a window). I know that my health comes first, but am wondering if anyone else had heard about this potential issue.. Thanks!
