QUESTION?

[Guest guest]

As far as I know, she was told it was probably hormonal...I had thought of

endometriosis or fibroids but doctor did not suggest either of

those.......but the doctor suggested that anti depressants might help

also....what they have to do with heavy periods I cant imagine but she

refused those.........

 

Thanks for you input and I will pass all info on to her and ask for her

feedback?

ob/gyn and thinks maybe she might need to see another. She really would

like to go the alternative, natural way and is willing to try

anything.......Thanks to all of you for your interest.........Eloise
