Guest guest Posted March 23, 2000 Report Share Posted March 23, 2000 Dear List, Has anyone had to have a hysterectomy after WLS? I am two years post op and am having heavy bleeding. This has happened to me in the past, but I had been fine since my surgery until now. The main concern is I am slightly anemic ( 11.5 iron level) and I don't want to get into trouble with needing a blood transfusion. My OB suggested a D & C, and then maybe a " endometrial ablation " which is the new procedure to remove the lining of the uterus... an alternative to a hysterectomy. I know a lady who had it and is very happy with the results... no more periods, without loosing the overies etc. I wanted to know if anyone else has been through this since WLS. I think I would be going through it without WLS, but do you think if they have to do a hysterectomy they would throw in a TT? Thanks for any comments.....
