Q: Hysterectomy But Pregnant
asked by: fionna1831 on January 12th, 2006

I am scheduled to have a hysterectomy in 3 weeks but I just took a home pregnancy test and it was postitive. I have an 18 month old and a 7 year old and I was finished having children. There were complications with my last child and my husband and I decided that we were finished. I have a prolapsed uterous and endometriosis which has caused pain on a daily basis. What should I do???? Any advice???

First of all i'd get the test confirmed by your doctor or gyn.
Are you on any treatments/meds that contain hormones for the endo?
Did you think you might be pregnant?


Then it comes down to you.
If you are pregnant do you want this child even?
You can go ahead with the hyst if you don't want the pregnancy or you can re-schedule the hyst to be done at the time of the birth if you'd rather.

Best thing is to discuss your options with your doctor.

If .God has given you a baby--when you thought you were finished, it is a miracle and will be the biggest and best gift you have ever received. Of course, I would keep it. It is a blessing and possibly the biggest blessing you will ever receive.

Hi
Ok, if you have endometriosis, and you have prolasped uterus, did you inform your doctor that you found out you were pregnant?
