HIPEC treatment for Ovarian Cancer
Hello Doctor, my mother has ovarian cancer and has completed 4 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with very good response (CA-125 reduced from 273 to 11). Her treating team is now planning interval cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC. We would like to take an expert opinion specifically regarding whether HIPEC is truly necessary/beneficial in her case, considering the additional recovery burden and cost. Could you please help us in deciding if HIPEC would be necessary and effective ? Thank you.
Endometrial hyperplasia
I was undergoing IVF treatment which started in 2024 as part of my pre-IVF assessment. I was given a diagnostics hysteroscopy that revealed that I had hyperplasia without atypia in 2024. I don't remember that my doctor was concerned during that time and the only treatment that I was given was Crina 10 for 10 days for my spotting in leutal phase. Now I this year. I am due for an embryo transfer and again, my doctor was examining my uterus and she mentioned that I have polyps in my uterus and when I referred to my past report just to see that what it said in 2024 i found about the hyperplasia and when I did some googling, I understood that this is a serious condition that should have been taken care. I am due for another hysteroscopy but I am scared as this was ignored. Reports from 2024 biopsy attached
