Heavy Bleeding Due To Multiple Fibroids With Pressure In Bladder. History Of Having Resection And Partial Ablation. Can Merina Be Considered?

I am seriously considering a Merina to help with my heavy bleeding and clots. I have multiple fibroids. I realize that this can hinder the effects of the Merina, but can't find any statistics. Also, I have found mixed information on whether or not the Merina has any affect on the Fibroids themselves. My bulk symptoms are minor right now. I have already had a resection and partial ablation. Bladder pressure is starting to come back. I am 45 and will not be having any more children.

Hello,
Thank you for the query.
I have gone through your query and understood your concerns. I want to inform you that merina helps in reducing heavy bleeding and pain but it has no effect to shrink the fibroids. If you were my patient considering your age I will definitely suggest merina but only after explaining the side effect which you may get in use with that like acne,breast pain,pelvic infections, loss of libido, infertility,allergic reactions etc. And if you have any previous history of cancers,heart problems,liver diseases and pelvic infections I dont suggest this as we do have medication to control heavy bleeding other than merina. Hope this answers your query. Thank you.
