My Story and have ?'s
by
Hello to everyone!
Wow, am I glad I found this site :) I have three kids, after my third, my husband and I both agreed that me having a TL would be the right choice. I had to have c-sections with all of them, as soon as I delivered my third child via c-section, they tied my tubes. I was never told of any side effects of having a tubal, the only thing i was told was to be very very sure on my decision. Let me tell you, since I had my tubal I have had nothing but problems. I do not know if any of what I am experiencing is from my TL but I am getting the huntch it is. First, over time my periods started getting longer and longer, heavy, clotty, severely painful. Then I started spotting in between periods, this was 1 1/2 years after my TL. So I went to my doctor, he is a wonderful man, anyhow, I ended up having a D&C, he removed two polyps. No more bleeding in between periods. But why am I still having LONG, horrible periods? He says I have endometrium hyperplasia. Where did this come from? He says it comes from an hormonal inbalance, wayyy to much estrogen not enough progestrone. So he puts me on prometrium to balance things out, well I am on four months of treatment and nothing has changed except for the fact that I use to get my period at the beginning of the month now it comes two weeks later :) I am headed Tuesday for a second opinion on my condition. My research has landed me here. On top of my wacky periods, I lost my sex drive, gaining weight no reason, very moody, I am upset all the time over something, very painful at ovulation time and the list goes on. I do not know if I suffer from Post Tubal Sydrome, but I would do anything for a reversal right now just to find out if that is the cause of all of this. My insurance however will not pay for one, so I am not sure what we will do. Anyhow, do my symptoms sound like my TL may be the cause? I once use to be a normal woman hahahaha, at least felt like one, now I feel like my insides are way messed up. Any advice? Thanks in advance and reading my LONG story :)
