Doctor said Fibroids are common..

[Guest guest]

Hello,

First post here ). I had a Vag US earlier this week. The doctor

said that I have a few fibroids. I had been experiencing pain

approximately a week prior to my period and during my period on the

left hand side, since December. Thus..the reason for the US.

Anyway I asked the Doctor if my pain was caused by the fibroids and

he said probably not, firbroids are common, you most likely have

endometriosis. WHAT? Wouldn't the US show that? I am getting married

in August of this year and would like to have at least one child.

Now..from what I read having fibroids as well as endometriosis can

cause you to become infertile. I saw a few options for treatment of

the fibroids and some of them alarmed me. Needless to say I woke up

this moring in pain and started to cry because i don't know what I

should do. I meet with my doctor next week and i do have a few

questions for him..but it appears as though " fibroids " are " common "

and there is nothing to worry about..

Any information/feedback would be appreciated. Thanks so much.
