A member asked:

Can i get a partial hysterectomy at 18 years old? i have had extreme issues with my period for 7 1/2 years. my bleeding doesn't stop without birth control but i'm not able to take birth control anymore since i have a rare blood clot disorder?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

If the clotting disorder prevents use of oral BCP's (also just progesterone birth control, since clotting is also associated), this described situation may become a choice of which risk to take, or become a reason to justify hysterectomy or an attempt at endometrial ablation as an alternative. Get a second opinion from a university staff OBGYN before proceeding with either.
