Hi i was diagnosed with atypical hyperplasia. I had a polyp removed at first hysteroscopy, this was found to contain atypical cells. I had another hysteroscopy some months later, results said "highly suspicious of atypical hyperplasia". At the time of the second hysteroscopy I had a Mirena coil put in. I will have another hysteroscopy in April to see if there's any change.
Questions
1. I see women speaking about having Provera which I understand is a tablet. Is anyone on both? Should I be on both? Is Mirena better for my condition and more likely to reverse atypia? I am trying to avoid hysterectomy due to all the bowel and bladder incontinence I see reported as being a consequence.
2. Are the side effects from tablet terrible? I don't seem to have many problems with the Mirena but it is diffcult to tell as they've taken me off Oestrogen until the atypia reverses. So i have symptoms but I think they are more due to the lack of oestrogen.
3. Has anyone had ATYPIA reversed by Mirena?
4. Has anyone tried the WID-Easy vaginal swab (for detecting existing endometrial cancer). I ask this because I was told they couldn't be sure if there was a cancer in there that they missed. I find it astonishing that they can't tell this without taking all your organs out but there it is.
