My first Specialist Appointment

today I had my gyno appointment to see why my iron is so low and to hopefully see what we can do to help get my energy back up.

well I was told what I thought I would hear I have 2 choices well four but the implant-on and the deprovera both cause mood swings and weight gain and I already am dealing with them so I am looking at a merina  contraception or next step up a hysterectomy. This I am not looking forward to and the merina can be 1 in 5 that it doesn't work for but at least I have to try and hope my iron levels raise up. All this has caused me some emotional issues and more stress as the hysterectomy is a longer recovery as it is Major surgery and I am a full time mum so think Ill wait that one out.

so hope this will end it all know it ends children If we ever wanted more but thankfully we have two beautiful Girls and we are a happy family network. plus I just really want energy so we can do more fun things as a family

Would a tube tie help this issue at all?

she didnt give me that option as its the heavy bleeding causing my iron levels to stay so low. mirena is non surgical and no hospital stay but still 1 in 5 have issues with it. still looking into it all

not cheap going to a gyno but had to do it

No it sure isn't cheap!

Well I hope you find an option that can help you before the "other" surgery option x
