Endometial Hyperplasia

(Levittown, PA)

I was recently diagnosed with endometrial hyperplasia and possible PCOS even though my bloodwork was fairly normal and an ultrasound showed no cysts. I haven't had a period (besides some light spotting occassionally) in well over a year and this has been happening since I was 20 (I'm 31 now) I have almost all of the symptoms of PCOS and last year had cervical dysplasia and had a LEEP procedure to fix.

I went to a new OB/GYN and she did a biopsy said I had the endometrial hyperplasia and put me on Provera 5 mg for the next 6 months. I have been taking it for a month now and it is horrible! I was thirsy all the time, moody and emotional, I gained weight almost immediatly and a bunch of other things. After 2 weeks I couldn't take it anymore and stopped and a few days later got my period which has now still been going on for almost a month. I went back to the doctor and she was mad that I stopped and said I was possible going to get cancer if I didn't keep taking it so I started again but it's so bad. I don't want to go back to this doctor but she is the only GYN that my insurance covers.

I have been looking into the natural cream and I want to try it but I am unsure of the dosage. I read the PCOS page and saw it there but I don't know if I would fall under that category to use that dosage.

Any help or info would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
