i may ramble and i apologise... after many episodes of being told i'm going to go through the menopause, finally at the ripe old age of 54, and having been period free for a year it was declared it was done!
at 53 i had a polyp removed, and at 54 i had bleeding which led to investigations and resulted in a medium sized polyp being removed from my uterus. When this was removed i was also told i have 2 prolapses, but because i was overweight, there was nothing they would do.
so here we are again, 3 years later, no sign of a period since the incident when i was 54, and i'm having spotting and the period cramps from hell, i'm back in the hamster wheel, urgent referral due to my age and i am going to assume another polyp will be found.
I have now lost the required weight and my GP has referred me for firstly gyne physio to deal with the prolapses, which she knows will not work, but once thats hoop has been jumped through, she will automatcally refer me for surgery.
I'm wondering, if given all of the above, i could just ask to take the whole lot out in one go? anyone suffered anything similar...
Obviously i'm clinging too this most recent episode as being another polyp.. but my brain is also aware it could be more sinister!!!
