Before my first surgery, doctor gave me luoprone for 4 months to reduce the firoids size. Doctor could remove 28 different size fibroids from my uterus. Just after 1 n half year, I have those fibroid again. I am married for only 1 n half year. Doctors adviced me to try pregnency as 2nd surgery could be dengerous. But I'm not getting pregnent and having heavy bleeding. Its making me animic. I took external blood twice. But is there any permanent solution?

I have had the same problem ever since I started my period at age 13. But from age 21 to 33 I was told that my uterus was slightly enlarged and I would be sent down to the Lab for a pregnancy test - which was always negative. My OB/GYN nurse was the one who gave the proper diagnosis. The first male doctor wanted to remove my uterus...NEXT!! I found a female doctor who understood and suggested surgery and I had the shots(for 3 months to reduce my fibroids before surgery) before the myomectomy surgery. She removed 6 one was the size of a honeydew melon the others were grapefruit. There were still others left in my uterus but I have a child and I am in my 50s now.
So if you really serious the only sure fire method is removal of the uterus. But I found this article; Uterine Fibroid Embolization: A New Way to Treat Fibroids at http://familydoctor.org/601.xml

No as far as I know if you were older they would probably do a hysterectomy but your are too young.
