Guest guest Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 Hello Janet, heads up here!! I am 48 years old and had myomectomy with Dr. Quagliarello at NYU last December. He offered hysterectomy OR myo and was perfectly happy to do the myo " at my age " etc. As he said, once it's gone you can't get it back. He performs many myos, including on " older " women because he is part of the IVF program there which has a " cut-off " of age 55. However whether I wanted to get pregnant was never an issue. He is known to be an excellent surgeon and two of my nurses told me he is their doctor and a favorite among the nurses. Before Dr. Q I was also told by several docs (including another gyne at NYU) that hysterectomy was my only option. Don't give up, Janet!! Your doctor is out there!!
