Polocks and about a Coil

Posted , 5 users are following.

Hello ladies.

I am 45 years old. i have had vaginal scan and results was a few Polocks on my Womb lining. My gp sent me to a consultant at Leigh hospital in uk. he tryed to put tiny camara through my Cervix. he could not get camara through my Cervix now have to be put to sleep on 28th of February 2020. He also talked about putting a Coil in me if i want after polyps are took out. i do get heavy periods and this is why he mentioned coil. im not sure about the coil and please could someone help me decide the pro and cons of a coil as im do confused about it. thank you. Joanne.

      thanks kim 35797

      i will have long hard think about it. will be glad i wont feel coil going in as under anesthetic because of polps they will do coil at the same time. i just worry about pain later in the months if i want coil out of me as i do not like pain as im murder when i have to have a smear test. Also do not know if i have sex with my husband wheather the wires that stick out the Cervix that it might hurt his man hood. so much to think about. but will take your advice on board. thank you kim. joanne.
