under HPV treatment now found out Uterine Fibroids..
I just posted this question on the Pregnancy 35+ forum but I wonder if in this forum someone can help me...
I have been living the most shocking times lately, it all started with my 35 years old regular check up, it turned out I got 9,6 anemia, since then my gyn had performed a pap smear which became abnormal, then a colposcopy and a biopsy which stated I gota CIN 1 dysplasia related to HPV, I have been under treatment since this past august, my daily takes are Vitamin C, E, Beta carotene, folic acid, Omega 3. and an iron rich diet, my latest blood test says i am now 13 in homoglobine, and my numbers seems getting "normal". I am taking Interferon shots once a week (5 mill U), for the first 6 weeks then once each month and i am programed to get a cryosurgery next Dec 19th. to fix the dysplasia. BUT last thursday I got an untrasound and it turned out I have uterine fibroids(Myoma) in large number and size (the biggest one almost 4" - or 10 cm), some subserosal and one peduculated (inside the uterus). She said I have 3 options: 1.- let them there and keep checking the bleeding during my periods and doing ultrasounds each 6 months, with the knowledge that if the bleeding becomes heavy the uterus is gone for sure. This option is the one she said is the best if I want to have one children in the future, she stated that I can only can aim for 1 baby and that due the fibroids the chances of getting pregnant are very little, and as soon as the baby is done the uterus is gone. 2.- take out the uterus out right now. 3.- get chemio and radiation. which she said will make me sterile any way. so she thinks this is not an option at all.
So I am more about staying for the option No.1 where I keep my uterus just in case i am able to have a baby, have to say since I am under HPV treatment I will not be able to get pregnant for at least 2 years so by the time I am "free" to have a baby I will be 37 years old. Seems this will be kind of a mission impossible for me to get a baby of my own...
I wonder if you guys have some imputs regarding this fiborids stuff, is there a way to live with them and some way do not let them grow or make them go away (in my dreams i wish!)....how is it to live with uterine fibroids and be in the hope for a baby in the future??? wish you health! and thank you for giving me some thoughts on this.... More Options??? 4., 5, 6...any??

Hello,
I just found out I also have uterine fibroids, due to hormonal imbalance. My doc is suggesting a hysterectomy but I am only 40 and I don't want to get that done. I have been researching herbal remedies, I found one called Fibroid Clear, I am going to try that, go to Biotanical Health and read up on the herbs and how each one helps. It is worth the try. Meds the Doctors prescribe can hurt you later in different ways.
I hope all goes well with you

hi!
i was reading your post and it spoke to me cause i to have been dealing with the HPV virus and possible fibroids of the cervix - and in the middle of ttc as well. i have had no problem in the past with getting pregnant, but m/c is another story! we are very close in age as well!
so - there is lot's of things you can do for fibroids. my very first suggestion would be to seek a ND -Naturopathic dr. you many not be able to get rid of them entirely - but keep them at bay - and maybe even shrink a little!!
most women get fibroids(if they are going to get them) in the mid to late 30's and they do tend to shrink after menopause - which leads most of the research to believe that estrogen plays a big part.
there are lots' of supplements you can take and do a big change in diet as well. i didn't notice any B12 supplements? did they check your B12? it is required for absorption of iron...
i know a few people who had dysplasia cells while ttc and and pregnant - the Dr said he would remove them after she had a baby. those cells (HPV) can be very slow to grow.
i am curious what HPV treatment you are under that lasts 2 yrs? chemo and radiation for fibroids? to be honest i've not heard of that unless they are cancerous. there are MANY different ways to have the fibroids removed WITH OUT the loss of any major organs!
it's time for some serious research. i've worked in the health care field for quite a few years now. there is lots you can do!!
i hope this helps a bit!
