Eek- I'd run the other way fast if the first thing out of thier mouth was "hysterectomy" too. There are a lot of advances in treating fibroids, I'd definately get second and third opinions. After my first post, the anemia thing crossed my mind too.

My tendency is to look for alternatives to the western medicine's "drug and cut" philosoply that some docs have, hence my examnation of the roll of progesterone in the reduction of fibroids. I have one small one is all, we'll see what they say at my next check up. I'm giving the progesterone 6 months and I'm tracking changes.
