| Gynaecologists should be given
definitive guidelines/or
legislation should be made, to
ensure that treatment options
are discussed at time of
diagnosis. All NHS Trusts
should ensure they have the
qualified personnel to deliver
all treatment options locally,
especially embolisation. |

| As I have been suffering with very large fibroids for over 30 years I fully support this campaign to raise awareness and campaign for further fibroid research in this area. |

| I support this peition as I was forced in to an unwanted hysterectomy at the age of 43, whilst a single parent of a 3yr old who still needed lifting. The impact of this was devastating for myself and my child. I was given a re-section which failed, making my symptoms much much worse, which then left me requiring a hystrectomy. At no time was I told of alternative treatments such as myomectomy, tailored ablation, or uterine artery embolisation. The NHS HAS TO STOP PRESSURING WOMEN IN TO HYSTERECTOMY as a treatment for fibroids. |

| Why do all doctors think that removing a womans womb is the answer to everything?? it's an archaic attitude,Doctors need to be re-educated in this matter. |

| I've just descoverd I've got fibroids, by mistake (i was scanned for other reasons) and I'm quite horrifided that because I'm over 40 most Doctors (male and female) seem to think it's a simple answer to whip your womb out. of course it means that they dont have to put much effort and time in to look for what might be best for thier patients, typical of today's money grabbing attitude. |

| More research is needed. i also have fibroids , i have been to my gynaecologist and he only gave me two options. hormone injections for 6mnths or hysterectomy. i went for the jabs but they only shrunk my fibroids by half, the biggest being 5cms. therefore i have to go back and see what else can be done. i am 39 yrs old. |

| No one seems to have a clue about the causes of this very common problem, a solution needs to be found. |
