Heavy bleeding Dr suggests Hysterectomy

Hi Hammy 1985. 

I’m so sorry that you are going through this. I had the same discussion with my physician 25 years at the age of 30. Issues with heavy bleeding during menstrual cycle  as well as length of each cycle. March of 2018, I underwent hysterectomy. I refused 30 years ago. During that time I developed numerous fibroids leading to other medical issues. My advice it to listen to your doctors. They will advise with questions in regards to your weight. 

I’m sending you a big 🤗 hug. 

Keep us posted)🤗🤗🤗

Hi had heavy bleeding for nearly 3 years before they gave me a hysterectomy they tried different things first like tablets to stop the bleeding even a womb abrasion in the end it was my last resort I'm the same size as you and about 10 years older they were able to do it turns out I had endometriosis so don't worry and listen to the doctor . The first appointment they go through everything that you probably already discussed with your doctor and what you have tried.

I am not going to lie to you my recovery hasn't been good due to some part unhelpful family and suddenly hitting menopause but too wake up not be bleeding no cramps being able to do things not worrying about having pads and what not with me all the time I used to feel really dirty and just horrible and not having that feeling out ways the surgery the recovery.

You will just don't let docter fob you off you know how you feel and your body better than anyone, my kept saying try this then that, then you have to wait to see if it works , then wait for another appointment but there is an end I hope everything is sorted for you soon .

Hi, I am too overweight and I had a full hysterectomy in November. I was under a gyna for 4 years, trying different meds etc, I had a very large fibroid (4.5kgs) which was causing me no end of problems. In the end they agreed my only option was to remove the fibroid and do a full hysterectomy. I have never felt so well in a very long time. My gyna was amazing, although I did initially see someone else first and took an instant disliking to her. But my second one was unbelievabley caring, helpful and always had time for me.

Good luck x

Really sorry your going through this- I'm 35 and was exactly the same... heavy bleeding to the point of wearing a tampon, with a sanitary pad as well and having to change every 45 mins! I went to the doctors continuously and they finally referred me to a gaynecoligist.... I suffered with cysts since age 16 and had 3 ops to remove them, but always kept coming back.  I went and asked to get my ovary removed to see if it would help with the bleeding problems (the ovary also had more large cysts that needed removed again)  after months of complaining with horrible pain and bleeding so heavy, bleeding would last at least 2 weeks at a time... they finally agreed to remove the ovary.

After removal I noticed a big change, no pain, bleeding a lot lighter! Maybe looking into getting a ovary removed might be a option for you? 

In my case 5 weeks after surgery they discovered stage 1 cancer in the ovary that was removed and I then had to go get a full hysterectomy as the ovary was removed in pieces and they were concerned the cancer cells may have drifted into the womb and surrounding areas  (5 weeks post op now) 

Hope you get looked after properly and sorted out! I feel great after the hysterectomy and am now on hrt that seems to be working great so far, early days but hoping it continues! Xx
