Guest guest Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 Ohhh, I'm sooo sorry that you are going through this. I totally understand how you feel. I have UD too and have had many, many horrible experiences with dr's. I know what it feels like to be treated like an hysterical woman, a specimin, a freak etc. and to be utterly ignored (I guess that second period this month was just a figment of my imagination!) I'm really sorry but, I do think you need to find another Dr. I can't believe your dr. would say everything's ok without really looking! She shouldn't make assumptions about future prospects for vaginal delivery, shouldn't be rude or short with you & you shouldn't be bleeding for weeks and weeks on end! There's just so much that is wrong here! My advice: take charge of your own health care & demand a thorough, accurate asessment of your current situation. Have you looked in the folders section & the list of recommended dr's? I suggest that you call & ask the RE if it is normal to bleed so long & to recommend an OB who has experience with MAs & time to focus on your needs. You could also talk to the office staff at the hospital & ask who the best OBs are--who the patients like best etc. You will want to take the time to find the right dr. now before you embark on a pregnancy. It may take a while but it will be worth it. I'm right there with you doing exactly the same thing hoping to have another chance soon... Good Luck!

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 Thank you so much! They just make me feel I am a making this stuff up. I will call my RE. She is real nice. I just did not know if it was really no big deal and I am just over reacting. I am so tired of dealing with this nonsense. > > > > I need some suggestions.

Again, you have to take charge since there is so much confusion about MAs. Are you sure you have UD? After I replied last night I remembered you mentioned having a resection. Usually that is not called for with cases of UD. Did they resect part of a vaginal septum? I'm curious about that since I have a septum that makes love making a little challenging at times (enough to make it interesting!). I suggest that you make sure your diagnosis is accurate before proceeding with a pregnancy. That's what I'm in the midst of doing right now. It's no fun! Jot down a list of questions before talking to your RE. That will help a lot. The RE should be able to confirm the diagnosis, tell you if one side is larger than the other, discuss potential difficulties etc... I have about three pages of questions after sorting through the files section here! Star > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 I had a vaginal septum that seperated the two cervix,It ran from top to bottom. I had it removed about two years ago. It was an outpatient procedure, took about 45 minutes. It has made life so much eaiser. I can use tampons now, and sex is awesome. It use to be such a chore. I have seen the ultra sound with the UD, they are both about the same size. I think I am going to go back to my RE that removed the septum. She was very helpful. I am at least going to get her insight into a new OB/GYN. The more I think about it, I think my current OB/GYN may find me to be a liability. I would ask her questions and she would always just refer me back to the RE. I just hate having to do all of this nonsense. I should have went to medical school. It would have saved a lot of hassle. > > > > Thank you so much! They just make me feel I am a making this stuff > > up. I will call my RE. She is real nice.
