Hello everyone had my hospital appointment yesterday for hysteroscopy and biopsy I am feeling fine - apart from being famished - nothing to eat from 7am and they didn't do op until 3.30pm!

They didn't tell me much, I have got appointment in clinic in 6 weeks

I have large fibroid and polyps (and prolapse)

Do you think they will offer me hysterectomy? - I have got it in  my head i want one - am I being silly?

Still not using Vagifem (despite what doctor says) I still think vagifem aggravated the fibroid!
Got some hyalofemme going to try that

Just a waiting game now I suppose

What symptoms are you hoping to get rid of by having a hysterectomy anderina and what has prolapsed?

Hoping to get rid of fibroid, bleeding and pain

I would like to re start vagifem without the worry of bleeding and aggravating fibroid

Because I have had no period for over 2 years and relatively mild meno symptoms I couldn't believe it when the bleeding and fibroid started!

Really need the vagifem but everywhere says it does have adverse effect on fibroids

As far as I know its my womb that has prolapsed I have no water work or bowel probs

I'm probably jumping the gun aren't I??

Why would Vagifem affect a fibroid?  Surely the fibroid is higher up than the preparation is applied?

Why didn't you ask at the Hospital before you had the investigation

Don't know how it would, but it does say Vagifem should be used with caution if there is a history of fibroids in the womb.
It can cause breakthrough bleeding as well.

On my thread for fibroids silverlady posted there was evidence of vagifem affecting fibroids

I just think it was too much of a coincidence that after I started vagifem this fibroid starting playing up!

I have obviously had it for a while but with no symptoms until approx 6 weeks ago (bleeding after over 2 years and pain)

I have had biopsy and I am now waiting for results,
 I have a clinic appointment in 5 weeks

Hope things go OK with the results Anderina.

Given that fibroids are oestrogen sensitive, it doesn't seem to make sense to use vagifem for a while.

Thank you Limpy just trying to keep positive - and off the vagifem for now!!

Hope all is well with you?
