    Hopefor30: I'm so glad that everything is good with you! And, good for you that you don't have to suffer the night sweats.

    hopefor30..I am so glad that you are doing better and that you have a peaceful mind!  That is exactly the reason I almost had them removed also.  I am only 38, so I still have periods...well, not periods because I had the ablation done, but I still have a cycle.

    The night sweats is what scared me about having it done also...I didn't like it when I had chemo and I don't want them again any time soon!

    Take care!

    I havn't been here for awhile since my BC dx.  I'm a little over 2 years out now and have been taking Tamoxifen for 2 years.  I had my first TransVag Ultrasound today and it showed that my Uterus was thicker than normal and I needed to have a biopsy.  They couldnt see my Ovaries too well becuase they were hiding behind other stuff ;-  but the tech told me if there was a problem with the ovaries they would be enlarged and/or have fluid around them--didn't see any of that--so I guess just going to be biopsying Uterus?  I know from reading that Tamox can cause thickening, what else would they be looking for or concerned about?  If it's not one thing it's another *%*%^&)^(
