Hi Mandy,
Thanks for you reply.
I am praying... my one turn out to be an endo. I have done 3 blood
test recently, to check tuman all are in normal level.
What kind of surgery you had? How performed your surgery? Gyn Oncologist
or your Ob/Gyn? Do you still have your both ovaries?
I have made an appointment with gyn Reproductive Endocrinology.
Reading your mail, thinking.....instead of gyn repro endocrinologist, i
could visit a oncologist.
