Dear Angie,

Thank you very much for the wonderful words you wrote us about OBGYN.net. I sent it to the staff and it made them proud.

Here are two special sections at OBGYN.net you should check out while you are waiting for a physician to answer.

Alternatives to Hysterectomy

http://www.obgyn.net/ah/ah.htm

Hysteroscopy

http://www.obgyn.net/hysteroscopy/hysteroscopy.htm

I think you will find a Lot of information in both of these sections.

How many times did I write "sections"? :-)
