So, I finally had my consultation with my new gynecologist/reproductive endocrinologist on 5/1/09 at 9:30 AM. I like her, she's nice and very thorough. Not only did she answer all my questions; she was kind enough to squeeze me in for a pelvic ultrasound and histerosonogram when she looked at my file and saw how far away I lived. :smile: I really appreciated that and told her so. Now I just wait for a call from her office to schedule the surgery.
The results were that I do not have one, huge, uterine fibroid as I had originally been told in December 2008. I have 2 uterine fibroids which are the size of very, large gum balls. Think Gobstopper; but a tad bit bigger. :tongue: More good news, they are not embedded in the wall of my uterus, so she can remove them vaginally and it will be an outpatient procedure. There is a third fibroid but it is embedded in my uterine wall and she does not think it will hamper my ability to get pregnant. :banana::yup::arms:
Anywho, the doctor who did my pelvic ultrasound and histerosonogram gave me the oddest compliment ever. He said I had "very, nice ovaries." :lmao: I said thank you, as my mother told me you should always say thank you when you receive a compliment. But I wondered how often he saw ugly ovaries . . .
I couldn't help myself, I asked what made them nice. :redface: He told me they were a good size and I had plenty of immature retrievable eggs within each ovary. So I probably won't need to do IVF.
