Frequently Asked Questions

1. QUESTION:
   Anyone had uterine polyps/fibroids? Symptoms?
   Has anyone had uterine polyps or fibroids. My doctor is thinking this is what I might have. I am just waiting to go have an ultrasound done in early January. What were your symptoms? I have spotting a week after my period, slight, slight cramping, frequent urination and a feeling of fullness in my abdomen. Any advice is appreciated! Thanks

   • ANSWER:
     I had huge uterine fibroids. My symptoms were
     heavy bleeding during period, period stayed for 10-12 days
     Anemia
     Weakness
     I got pregnant with the fibroids and in last July doctors removed my uterus while doing my Cesarean.

2. QUESTION:
   Are fibroids, endometrial hyperplasia or polyps a precursor to cancer?
   I’m 44 and had heavy menstrual bleeding. Ultrasounds and MRI showed three small fibroids, focal complex hyperplasia and polyps. I’ve been trying natural remedies which have improved menses dramatically, no longer heavy, nor as painful. Should I still have hysteroscopy or other procedure done, or does the resolution of symptoms mean I’m OK?

   • ANSWER:
     Not a precursor to cancer. Chances are the pain and bleeding will return. Interuterine scraping is another option, but I hear it is painful and not always effective. Hysterectomy may be another option for you if you just want to be done all together.

     
     
     

3. QUESTION:
   Anyone with Fibroids or Polyps???
   Hi, I wonder what are the symptoms when you have fibroids or polyps? Is brown watery discharge after your period one of the symptoms? I’ve been having this weird watery dishcarge constantly for the last two or three months. Especially when I stand or walk, this brown liquid would come out. I already had an ultrasound, blood test and pelvic exams, all came back normal. Can polyps or fabroids found by pelvic exam or regular ultrasound?
   I’m not pregnant or on any type of BC pills. My last normall period was on 9/1 – 9/5. On 9/10, I start having this watery brown liquid discharge and it won’t go away

   • ANSWER:
     I just had surgery last month to remove 6 polyps from my uterus. I never had discharge like you’re describing but I read that it does happen. They didn’t find them via pelvic exam or regular ultrasound. I am going to a fertility specialist. She did a test where they fill your uterus with saline and use the ultrasound wand inside you. Or, sometimes they use a little camera. I don’t think these kinds of things would show up in blood work though.

4. QUESTION:
   Uterine Fibroids and Polyps – Physical Activity?
   I was recently diagnosed with uterine fibroids and a uterine polyp. Prior to my sonogram, I experience heavy bleeding (18 days) and it finally stopped but I am a little leary about continuing with my dance class since I don’t want to wind up doing any more damage. I would ask my OB/GYN but he is IMPOSSIBLE to get on the phone and I am in the process of finding a new one.

   Does anyone have any thoughts or suggetions?

   Thanks

5. QUESTION:
   Do polyps or fibroids bleed after the menopause, I noticed some blood on the tissue after I had a wee.Help
   please I am so scared, had my smear test done two weeks ago, not had the result yet.

   • ANSWER:
     Fibroids tend to regress at the menopause. Polyps can be traumatised and bleed. I am afraid however that you really have to wait for your results.
