Is it mandatory that you go for surgery for a thick lining in the uterus or can !


Question: my ob/gyn said that I have a thick lining of the uterus and wants to do a scraping of the uterus. She does not want to put me on medication first. I found that odd because I have friend with a similar situation and she take progestorone. I do not get my period on a regular basis. The last period was on Oct of 2006 and it lasted until march of 2007. Ever since I only spot on occasion then it goes away. I have taken birth control more than ten years ago and was on the depo shot for a year. I am 31 years old and have one child and do not desire to have any more children. The gave the doctor my blood results that my regular pcp took in Dec of 07 and now wants to do another set of analysis of the same thing. She did the physical all over again. I went for a transvaginal sonogram and it shows that the lining is about 15 mm thick and everything else is fine. The uterus is of normal size. Both my mother and aunt had cervix cancer and had their cervix removed.

Although I think you should have the surgery too, nothing is mandatory. The doctor is trying to do what they think is best for you. If you are uncomfortable with their recommendations get a second opinion.

Have the surgery-you will feel like a new woman.Be sensible and get plenty of rest after the op-I should know-I have the tee-shirt!All the best to you.
