A member asked:
I am 48 years old and have fibroids that cause very painful and heavy bleeding, i am anemic, is hysterectomy adviseable?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Consult with GYN MD: It is time to have a conversation with your GYN MD about future options both medical and surgical. At age 48 your childbearing years are behind you and surgical options take on more urgency due to the continuing anemia. See one soon.
