[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]search this forum about ablations.  There was a thread about a specific problem that quite a few people have developed after it.

I was in your shoes a few years ago, OP.  I had [b]a laprascopic hysterectomy[/b] and life has been a breeze (on that front) ever since.  It may not be right for you, but if it turns out ablation isn't what you want, then don't be afraid of the hysterectomy.[/quote]

Wait...Is that the procedure where they grind up your uterus to get it out and it turns out that women were getting cancer later on because the surgeon never saw there were small tumors?

[i]A small number of women – the precise number is unknown – are effectively sentenced to death by a version of this procedure that can spread cancer cells as the uterus and any growths on it are pulverized to fit through the tiny incision, a process called morcellation.[/i]

If so, no thanks.

--Not OP, but I'll keep my uterus.[/quote]

NO!!!! Please, this process is not used anymore. Laproscopic hysterectomy means they make small incisions and use tools that allow them to reach in and remove the uterus without making a large incision.

Please stop fear mongering. You have no idea what you are talking about.[/quote]
