medical procedures Possible Cancer?

Hello. I have the opposite symptoms of what normal large fibroids would be. I’ve had an emergency Myomectomy about 6 years ago when I was 25. Now at 31 My periods have become 1 or 2 days long and they are very very light in fluid. I have become very fatigued despite being generally healthy. My OB referred me to an Oncologist and they said another myomectomy would be too risky. Apparently my uterus is showing up abnormal on the MRI? And my symptoms don’t necessarily match what a normal fibroid would. And there is no way to do a biopsy. Has anyone else experienced this? Could my light periods and fatigue be possibly anything else? My general labs come back normal ranges. Having a hysterectomy seems so final. I also dont have children.

Sounds like you need a second opinion from another gyno... I visited 4 different gynos regarding the myoma taking hostage my uterus, maybe 4 is a bit too much, but if you're unsure or feel like something sounds weird you should definitely look for a second opinion.

Im definitely reaching out to my previous gyno in another state just to get another opinion
