Guest guest Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 before my myomectomy, my periods were very irregular. The longest time between was about 48 days,but once it was 14. I haven't had a period since the myo on 5/10. I also had edema in one leg which my family doctor thought might be due to the tumors blocking the lymphatic fluids. I always felt like the fibroids were blocking the flow of my cycle from occurring normally and would usually stop for a day or so, then start again (after 7 - 8 day periods). I am looking forward to getting back to " normal. " > Hi all, > > I have heard a few of you talk about your fibroids making your > periods closer together and more heavy. I am in the opposite boat.
