At Thu, 15 Apr 1999, Mae, 27, wrote of her irregular bleeding, and some small "masses", discovered by transvaginal ultrasound, at the back of her uterus. She's hoping to get pregnant soon:

Dear Mae,

It would be a good idea to talk with your doctor again, now that you want to get pregnant. Your doctor can give you some advice on having a healthy prengnacy, and may be able to advise you about anything special that needs to be done about the "masses" before trying to get pregnant. She may be able to give you advice about how to get pregnant faster, also.

I advise you not to use the Provera and Premarin until talking with your doctor. These might interfere with your ability to get pregnant during the month that you take them, and should be used only under the supervision of the person who prescribed them. Provera is not normally used if there's a possibility of pregnancy, and, if you've been trying, there's always a chance that you're already pregnant and don't know it.

I hope you get pregnant very soon!
