Have fibroid  growing  in my uterus  the gyn and gp advice  is to remove  my uterus   and have the cyst  also remove I will appreciate  any one with similar  experience. I am so confused

I had cysts removed but not fibroid which was diagnosed at same time as cysts.  Perhaps it depends on size or if it's causing problems. Ask why they think it's necessary.

Originally they wanted to remove my ovaries as well as cysts but when I questioned this surgeon backed down.

Hi thanks  for  that .l am really  worried  about  having  it all taken out at the same  time  so I will talk to the surgeon I go to see him tomorrow  keep  you posted   I think most of the problems  I have is caused  by the cyst  the fibroid  is small so I will  talk to him thanks a lot

I've had a big fibroid for years (actually it was 12cmx9cm at diagnostic, then 17x15 when pregnant, now its "just" 9x5).  Never caused me any problems or pain.  I have just been diagnosed with a 7cmx6cm cyst on my left ovary.  The cyst HAS to go but I was given the choice for the fibroid.  I clearly got the feeling my Gyn would prefer to leave it be.

It came down to laparoscopic ovary removal (1 day stay, 2 weeks recovery) or remove the uteus and ovary by abdominal surgery (4-5 day stay, 8 weeks recovery).

I chose the laparoscapic surgery.  Im due Feb 09 (I CANT WAIT! Im feeling so crappy!!!)
