Uterine fibroids
My mother is 47. Since the last two years, she was suffering from menorrhagia. As a result, her Hb dropped to 8. She has recovered from anemia. Ultrasound showed Uterine fibroids with the largest measuring 58*52mm. This ultrasound was done 3 months ago on 21st March. Her doctor prescribed her Trapic MF. Now the doctor is saying she should get hysteroscopy before surgery. Is a hysteroscopy necessary?

Hysterectomy is the most appropriate treatment.
Giving Trapic MF and doing Hysteroscopy is a waste of time and money. Ultimately she will need a hysterectomy. If you want to be scientifically correct then she can have a D&C.

Unless proper details known, it's difficult to say.Discuss with a gynaecologist clearly.
