4 years ago, I had a hysterectomy. I kept my ovaries, and my cervix. I found out recently, there is a mass and it is the size of a uterus.. If another fibroid, will I need surgery to remove it? how can one prevent having them reoccur?
If someone wants to learn about fibroid surgery then it is worth checking out websites such as Wikipedia or Netdoctor. Both of these will give good information about the surgery and what is involved at the time and afterwards.
The surgery depends on the woman's age, the type of symptoms she is experiencing, and whether she plans to have children in the future. ther are two forms of surgery-myomectomy and hysterectomy
Hysteroscopy
Need to have surgery to remove the gall bladder- cholecystectomy
It will unfortunately take 6 weeks to recover from fibroid tumor surgery. On Sept 2, 2011 I will be having my 2nd surgery. In 2004 I had 2 fibroid tumors removed, and was told that more could possibly come back and sure enough its happened. Im looking forward to the surgery to get rid of the extreme pain Ive been in, but not looking forward to the recovery. Im a very active person and basically surgery is the only thing that slows me down....Ive been dreading the long period of time I have to move slower, however i have to do what Im supposed to so I can heal properly!!

Perhaps he(she) is undergoing a sex change operation.
no, the uterus lies in a cul de sac (dead end)meaning it cannot travel into the body. You do need to go to a doctor who can remove with little discomfort. Not surgery per se, but you need to remove it or have a doctor remove it asap. There's a good chance of infection or toxic shock syndrome if you leave it.
Some risks are heavy bleeding and it is something that you should discuss with your physician or your surgeon before you undergo any kind of operation.
There is no natural method to treat fibroid, the only thing you can do to feel better is to find a solution for pain and/bleeding if any. Fibroid can only be cured by surgery when the will be extracted. It is an unwanted growth on the uterus and there is no way to make disappear unless through this procedure.
