I have fibroids that cause me to bleed heavy during my period, I have a hysterectomy coming up soon?
purple asked:
The heavy bleeding has left me anemic, which makes me very tired and restless at times. Will I get my energy back after the surgery, meaning will this anemic feeling go away?

Don’t let them do a hysterectomy.
You should totally go for the UFE treatment.They just burn the fibroids instead.
You may want children.Do dont do the hysterectomy,Go for the UFE treatment.They just burn the fibroids off and you recover faster and its less invasive
maby i do not no but make shure to pray.
See Kate-Ann’s answer. At least ask your doctor. There may be reasons the treatment is not right for you, but at least ask.
Also, ask your doctor if you should be taking iron supplements if you are anemic.
If you have lost that much blood, you might need supplements.
Yes you will eventually get your energy back but it will not be fast. It takes some time to get over the surgery. However, I guess you are taking hormone treatment to help to shrink the fibroids before your op so this will help with the anemia. If you are not already on iron tablets, you might want to ask your doctor for some as this will help restore your energy levels. You will definitely feel so much better once your fibroids are gone!
You don’t say when your hysterectomy is due, but if it’s a while off you might like to look at some natural remedies for fibroids which could help in the meantime.
Hope this helps!
PS Yes I understand what Kate-Ann is saying about having the other treatment-the problem is that unless you remove the cause of fibroids they do grow back in over 30% of women-some natural remedies can stop this happening though after these procedures should you opt for them.
