I have 2 large fibroid tumours in my uterus and several ovarian cysts. I have been told my only option is hysterectomy. I would like to see if anyone has tried anything else and what was the outcome? I am on estrogen reducer to help stop bleeding and possibly shrink fibroids to prepare for surgery. Gynaecologist says I shouldn't wait the time it would take to try to shrink the fibroids naturally and that the cysts won't go away on their own (may be Myomas?) I also do have some pain because of this as well, which has disrupted my life, but a hysterectomy would also cause pain for a long time and affect my daily life for many weeks. Help!
