                        Years ago my doctor removed my fibroids during an office visit.  He cut them out and cauterized at the same time so the bleeding was not bad.  However, I cramped each time he touched the uterus.  It felt like birth pains.  After my fifth child was born I had the uterus removed and I was really glad to get rid of it.  My health improved 200% when it was gone!  No  monthly problems, no anemia, no lack of energy from loss of blood, etc.  Wonderful.  If I were doing it over I would ask about newer procedures, scar tissue residue, etc. And ask if all are being removed or just large ones. I have heard that some people think fibroids are a precussor to uterine cancer.  I would ask about it.
