Hi dear ask your GP for a Scan before considering for coil. Continue with the prescription such as mefanemic and tranexamic and perhalps cerelle pill to stop bleeding. You also need iron tablets keep an eye on your iron levels for blood test.

Myonectomy is an option, remive the fibroids surgically. Either key whole, open or hysteroscpically. Find out how many, how large & location. My experience was that some doctors dont even offer as an option because the lack the surgical skills. I was told by 2 dr it woulnt work and blood loss would be so great i would end uo needing a hysterectomy in surgery anyway. Do your research & find a dr who has a surgical background
