Bumping this thread as I'm considering going forward with the hysterectomy this year or sometime next year (few other plans to sort out first and then wait times etc)
After 6 years of this problem I am fed up (3 weeks out of a month are af and its worse and heavier thanks to getting my tubes tied!)
So I am looking for info from others of what to expect (thinking best option would be for uterus and cervix to be taken unsure if they could do it via "down stairs" as I have a vertical septum making it two canals so to speak. So could be more tricky)
What options, recovery times (dh said he'll take time off if needed specially with four kids, kids going to school etc)
What complications could occur, and anything else I should look into and know before going forward and see my doctor and taking those steps forward.
It's a huge step which I hope may be the right one, other doctors I've seen have told me not much more they can do and to expect this to keep happening for years to come (horrible their isn't an answer but at least they are honest with me instead of lying or sugar coating things)
Cycle has gone crazy not regular since ds's birth (I got af back at 8 weeks)
I am keen to be somewhat normal again , wear anything from my wardrobe (specially summer I've been stuck wear only a select few pieces of clothing) been able to go out without worry, and go swimming!!!
