Dear Donna, I understand your question, but this Forum is for professionals to discuss the use of ultrasound in women's health. Your question is one of treatment, rather than ultrasound. You will get better answers from the Women's Health forum. Please go there for responses to your question. Discussion there will also benefit more women who may have similar questions.

I have been diagnosed via a vaginal ultrasound, to have a uterine polyp, 3mm in diameter. I had one (the same size) removed last yr. just about this time. Is it likely that this will keep recurring; and should I be considering a partial or total hysterectomy at this time. I have excessive bleeding from this since 8/31/01 and have been put on medexprogesterone, which helps to control it.

I had a tubal ligation almost 3 yrs. Ago, so do not plan on having anymore children.

Pls let me know where I can go for pros and cons of hysterectomy... Thanks so much

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
