Default Re: Any ladies, have their uterine fibroids removed or shrunken?

After about 10 years of eating ice due to anemia and having no energy and periods that warrented 2 boxes of super plus tampons a week with periods lasting for at least 2 weeks and finally having a uterus the size of a cantalope, I knew I had to have something done.

My sister with a problem similar to mine had a proceedure done called imbulization. Went in in the morning, was awake during the proceedure and stayed over night. It took about 6 months but my periods were reduced drastically to where I only used a few tampons a day and no back up or anything. I don't know how old you are but I know I was about 38 when they tried taking out my uterus. Don't let them do that.
