Biopsies

Two biopsies are done and now I wait for the results. I know damn well that they are going to come out normal. The doc also did a PAP smear and that has already come back normal. I'm far too mean and feisty to be dying at 45... LOL The endometrial (uterine lining) biopsies are NOT fun, but they were quick. Once we rule out cancer, I will have a full pelvic ultrasound to rule out any other weird cause of the nasty bleeding that I had. If those all come back clear, I have 3 choices to deal with the bleeding:

1. Hormone pills.
~This doesn't excite me because birth control pills give me AWFUL headaches and lots of bloating, weight gain and moodiness. I would rather bleed out monthly than take those, to be frank.

2. IUD.
~I don't like IUDs. I have never had one but the knowledge of how they work is bothersome to me. I learned years ago that they do not prevent pregnancy when used as a birth control method - they only prevent the embryo from implanting. ICK. I don't need an IUD for birth control, but I fear uterine perforation and the endless bleeding that some women experience when using one. Not to mention that this type of IUD secretes the same hormones as above. :(

3. Endometrial Ablation.
~This basically is a procedure to BURN OUT the lining of the uterus, leaving it scarred and unable to build monthly. This makes for very light or non-existent periods. Sounds great..? NO. My uterus is tipped and the risk of burning my colon is large. I have GREAT fear of my internal organs being burned as a method of treating another medical issue. Besides, can you say OUCH???? Weeks of bleeding and passing charred chunks of my uterus does NOT appeal to me.

So, I see NO OPTION. If this is all hormonally caused, I am screwed until I hit menopause. The doc doesn't want to remove my uterus. She says that is now a "last choice". Great... Any feedback here is greatly appreciated!
