Unsure if symptoms are from fibroid
by tlee59, May 02, 2008 09:08PM
I am 49 with a 4 inch uterine fibroid. My Dr. keeps trying to talk me into other options besides surgery (the pill, an IUD, etc...). I have had a problem with spotting (anywhere from barely noticeable to seeming like the beginning of my period that just stops) at least once or twice a week. My periods are irregular, every two to six weeks. Something new that I'm not sure is from the fibroid is a problem with some incontinence and more vaginal discharge than normal. Although I did have a yeast infection following a large dose of antibiotics after surgery, that has been cleared up.
Does anyone have any experience with this?
