A member asked:
Just found out i have uterine fibroids. they are causing pain. dr. has suggested tubes tied with ablation or hysterectomy. your suggestion?

Reasonable choices: You don't provide nearly enough information to answer your question. There are a lot of variables, but in general fibroids are common and do not cause pain. A hysterectomy is major surgery but would more definitely solve the problem. However, if the pain is because your fibroids are causing heavier bleeding, then the ablation could be an excellent choice.
