I DO NOT WANT a hysterectomy and am not planning on one. HOwever my first doctor would love to do one. I am not planning on getting pregnant as my husband has a vasectomy. What are the side effects of spironolactone? I know that it is supposed to help with acne too. My period only lasted one day this month and I spotted for the remainder so I am hoping it will get shorter and shorter. Either that or this month was just a fluke. I am not sure what my next appt. will say....probably ignore everything just like the first doctor, but not if I am lucky. I will ask to see a german doctor if they say the same thing...."hysterectomy".

Thanks :-)
