TAILIEUCHUNG - Women’s Health Today Magazine Summer 2009

About one-third of American women will eventually have a hysterectomy, the second most common surgery after cesarean section. Why so common? Basically, hysterectomy can cure a variety of uterine problems: ✿ Fibroids. Hysterectomy is most often recommended for serious cases of fibroids (benign tumors that grow in the uterus wall). Fibroids can grow large and may cause great pain and heavy bleeding. Depending on the severity, physicians and patients may decide to try treatments other than hysterectomy. In a surgery called myomectomy, the fibroids are removed but the uterus stays in place. Also, drug therapy may shrink fibroids temporarily, and after menopause, fibroids may shrink without treatment. For serious cases, hysterectomy is often the best choice. | ỊBỊỊđsoH isụqo aqi sMiirjsn OI d6ed The Christ Hospital 2139 Auburn Avenue Cincinnati OH 45219 ÀHSĐHnS HOd AQVdlS aNVÀQVSH ISO i3dVd3dd w NON-PROFIT ORG US POSTAGE PAID CINCINNATI OH PERMIT 5489 epnịỊỊịè qsajj Á 6uỊỊsajje ssn nnd oidOHJ S N0SV3S 3H1 mJ uspjeS jnoX S9Òp MOỊ-I X ẩ S N3IAIOM NOissaadaa 01NI 3AiDi i ioa SdBHSVa sania It s a short Mason distance between home and peace of mind.
