– your sexual pleasure is diminished, if

– breasts and genitals are not as sensitive as they used to be, if

– orgasms are not as big as they used to be, and if

– there is a decreased libido.

Low energy and depression may also be signs of the lack of testosterone. All women under surgical menopause should add both estrogen and testosterone to their daily remedy intake!

Signs Of Quality Presence Of Testosterone

These are the signs that testosterone for women is present:

– vasomotor symptoms of menopause will be better,

– you will have more energy,

– there will be an enhanced feeling of well-being,

– breasts will be harder,

– there will a stronger desire for sex,

– sex will be more intensive,

– sex will be more frequent,

– orgasm will be better.

The reason testosterone therapy is not used more often is that women are afraid of its side-effects, such as hoarseness or voice changes, growing beard, acne and too strong a sexual drive. These will not happen if testosterone is taken in small doses, and if there are any side-effects, just decrease the dose of testosterone.

They want me to start taking lupron to decrease estrogen after estrogen and progesterone receptor + cancer. Tamoxifen did not work as I am premenopausal. Lupron scares me but i am not sure if it is worth the risks. How else can i decrease my estrogen naturally?

Great question and you will not find an answer strictly within the pharmaceutical world. You have to get to the root of the problem and that is how the pituitary gland works. Treat her right and everything else will slowly start to fall in place. This is a simplified view, of course, but nevertheless, the right one, and it is almost sure to be overlooked by a gynecologist, which will only think in terms of his or her specialistic profession.

You need a remedy that will affect the pituitary gland, and the actual way doesn’t matter:

– it can be herbal,

– it can be homeopathic, or a mixture of both,

– acupuncture or Su Jok,

– Reiki

and so on. If that works, fine.

The more fundamental way would be to see what emotions are whirling in your energy bodies now. Maybe the relationship you are in now needs adjustment, maybe there are monetary problems which ruin everything and your female body reacts the only way it knows how, by disseminating the energy from the emotional level deeper to the body, thus creating illness. A more proper therapy for this level would include Bach flower remedies, for example.

Finally, and this is the only way my services finally enter the picture, if you want to predict what will happen in the future AND start rectifying things and behaviours BEFORE they escalate, you may need a horoscope reading from me. To see a glimpse of how that would look like, you can go to www.DuskoSavic.com to see some videos of mine. If you order the reading, you will actually get such videos for YOUR case, with specific therapies for you both now and in the future and so on.

I am posting this to the blog because the question is very important and will be of use to many other visitors to the site. Thank you for posting it in the first place.

Your doctor may reach for a hormonal therapy which will induce a temporary menopause. The fibroids do stop to grow and you get hot flashes, dry vagina and all sorts of negative aspects of a true menopause. Once the hormonal therapy stops, the fibroids usually return with a vengeance. In western medicine, nothing else is to “help you” so the good doctor spread his hands, hangs up his shoulders and tell you about the imminent hysterectomy. You struggle and succumb after a while, and then tell everyone how it was the best thing you ever did in your entire life, how you do not know why it took you so long to decide and so on, ad nauseam and ad infinitum.

That whole situation is researched and statistically processed, so it is a realistic scenario to which “watching and waiting” is leading you to.

A gringa in New Orleans has a good post on seven reasons why she wouldn’t like to have a hysterectomy. Here is my comment on her blog:

I run a site on how to avoid hysterectomy. I can only aplaude your willingness to try something else than the western medicine and their ultimate chopping solution known as the hysterectomy.

Anything under the sun needs food to grow, and your fibroids are no exception. The food which helps fibroids to grow are your emotions. There must be some emotional leakage in your life so fixing that will make a platform for all other alternative techniques to heal you.

In terms of physiology, the emotional leakage is known as “oestrogen dominance”. Fibroids come about because the estrogen receptors are stimulated too much, regardless of your periods and usual hormonal flows. So make your emotional peace and that will be the start of healing.

What would be your reasons to not have a hysterectomy? Make a list of abstract reasons and then make a parallel list of actions you would undertake to actually avoid the hysterectomy.

See the start of the main article of this site, How To Avoid Hysterectomy, for further information about hysterectomy and methods and techniques to either cure it or to switch to a lesser, non-invasive uterus-preserving kinds of surgery.

– to stop doing the D&Cs, which were uncomfortable and painful,

– to go in for a chemo therapy, or

– to go all the way down and have a hysterectomy.

Here is my comment to this situation:

Doctors deal with patients, ie with people that have some discomfort, pain, illness etc. It is all too easy to screw up and make patient feel and behave much worse instead of much better. Doctors would like us to believe that they are omnipotent, as if when they wear their official white wardrobes they become powerful wizards, be all, end all, cure all. In reality, they are just humans willing to help and they might have some ready to use knowledge that patients find welcome.

So far so good, you go to a doctor, he or she tells you what to do, and that often helps. But what about those cases when doctors cannot help, or worse, when the things they suggest and do make everything worse on their own!? That is why doctors work within procedures: each problem you throw at them, they respond through a set of fairly rigids official procedures. It is this word official that is the problem here.

What is official and how do doctors learn about what is official? Official is what some body or committee of doctors says it is official. That is, they get together, two or three doctors that are at the foremost of the research tell others what should be done and how, and a new procedure is born. Each practicing doctor is then responsible not for healing a patient but for applying the right procedure in the proper way. There is a huge difference between healing or curing and applying a proper procedure and that what this comment is all about.

In the above post, the doctor suggested three separate things, none of which is aimed at curing or healing or advancing the health of the patient. He or she is bound by the available procedures for the patient’s situation, but if none of the procedures is going to work, then what — he doesn’t really care! He has done everything he could according to the trade he is in, but how will that help the patient to have a child, in this case? The doctor is legally covered and he can even be sympathetic to the patient, wishing her every good in the world, but he still is bound by his chosen profession.

The senseless D&Cs really should have been stopped, or at least a hysteroscopy should have been performed, in which the doctor can actually see something inside the uterus. There are videos on YouTube ( Hysteroscopy Of Intramural Fibroids Video and Operative Hysteroscopy For Intrauterine Adhesions Video) so everybody can see what it looks like.

The chemo therapy as it is called here is not a chemo therapy in the sense of someone having cancer and then applying a chemo therapy, here it is a hormonal therapy aimed at resolving the symptoms. Finally, the most horrible idea is to have a hysterectomy because there will never be babies after that. But all this is leading to a hysterectomy, the situation that this doctor is leading his patient to has even been statistically researched, and the conclusion was that hysterectomy was inevitable when “everything” was tried, including the hormonal treatment.

We are all too ready to believe everything the good doctor says, but in this case and in all cases such as this, there is a lot to try and do inbetween the symptoms and final solution, i.e. hysterectomy. There is homeopathy, there is Reiki, Su Jok, acupuncture, enzyme mixtures, herbal remedies, crystal therapy… as well as many others, none of which is in the domain of our good doctor because the official medicine didn’t approve any of them.

I wish your friend all the best, and especially not only to get well but to have that baby finally. Life with a baby of your own is what life on this planet is all about.

Hi

Well, thank you for sharing this. Since I am into medical astrology and energy healing I’ll give my advice in spite of you not asking for it. In case it is somehow unsuitable, please delete this comment.

There is a homeopathic remedy called Cimicifuga Racemosa which fits well into the state of post-partum depression. You should check it out with a professional homeopath, if you can find one near you.

In Bach flower remedies, you should check Cherry Plum and White Chestnut, but if you already have a bottle of Rescue Remedy in house, please take that for at least three months at least four times a day.

You can also try Reiki treatments. If you cannot find someone to physically give you a treatment, you can try distant healing, look for an Energy Pack on my site www.how-to-avoid-hysterectomy.com.

You can and you will get better, but it is not probable that hysterectomy will solve anything, you know. Do not rush things, if you really want to know what is best for you, take a Bach flower remedy called Wild Oat.

I apologise if this is not a comment that you are accustomed to have, but I try to be practical.

And by the way, there are no affiliate links in this comment, everything I mentioned is free or is very low cost at the usual prices.

Do get well, though.

In this blog entry, When You Just Ain’t Right, on the blog called RealMental, author Bellinda enumerates the many troubles she’s been through, and one of which was having a hysterectomy. Here is what she thinks of the hormones part:

“And then there’s the hormone angle, which I don’t even know for sure how to approach. Something has GOT to be going on there, since the weirdness has escalated by, um, a bunch, since my hysterectomy last fall. When I first came out of surgery, on estrogen deprivation, I literally felt, for the first and only time in my life, that I had lost my mind. It’s like nothing I can describe–the misery, despair, agony, anxiety–the certainty that it’s never going to be better, ever. After a couple of weeks, I was able to start estrogen replacement therapy, and it was like a miracle…at least to a point. It made the extreme crazy go away, but like I said at the beginning of this post, I still ain’t quite right. But then, I’ve never had the dosage checked or adjusted, so there’s a thought…”

This is exactly why we here, at this blog How To Avoid Hysterectomy, advise women not to have hysterectomy unless they absolutely have to. A woman’s body is a finely tuned mechanism and any prolonged emotional disturbance will reflect as a gynecological disorder. This is precisely why taking Lupron and other medications leads to hysterectomy — they just cover up the symptoms, never do they charge upon the real cause of the disorder. For emotional disturbances take remedies such Bach flower remedies, eventually clean up the mess using either the conventional or alternative medicine and you’ll start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

For a comprehensive line-up of endometrial ablation methods please have a look at our page called Can Endometrial Ablation Replace Hysterectomy in Cases of Heavy Menorrhagia? The video that we have present here is at

http://www2.marketwire.com/mw/frame_mw?attachid=574778

It is 46 minutes long and shows hydrothermal endometrial ablation performed as a live webcast, on September 27th 2007. Enjoy!

My contribution to that thread was this:

Hi

Having a hysterectomy is never a picnic. The only way of telling what will happen next is medical astrology, but there are very few people in the world that practice it. For every woman that had her hysterectomy done well, there is a legion of women who curse themselves for being so stupid to give their consent for it, without realizing what they actually do.

Uterus is a vital part of woman’s body, it stores sex hormones created by the ovaries during the night and releases them during the day. If there is no uterus, the hormones get expelled with the first morning urination and from there so many problems follow that it would require an entire site to explain the consequences.

Fibroids are tumors, and tumors are large tissues — ask yourself, what in my life is food for these tumors to grow!? Uterus is an organ for emotional responses, it is your primary means of reacting to the world as a woman. In other words, it is the emotions that give food to the tumors and cancers, resolve emotions first, they are the origin of the illness, and simultaneously try to heal the body.

If you want to heal your fibroids and uterus, you may be interested to know that there are several alternative methods of healing the uterus without surgery: homeopathy, Su Jok, Reiki, herbal remedies, seed therapy, a combination of these etc. Maybe the simplest would be to try the enzymes which resolve the myoma, Google them and you’ll find them.

All the best, Dusko Savic

Testosterone for women — is testosterone advisable for women?

Natural women progesterone — it seems that the lack of progesterone can a be the reason for many disturbances in a woman’s body,

Lupron — Lupron is a solution to some and a final life curse to many other unsuspecting patients,

Low Libido in Women — What To Do About It?

So many women have low libido, a low drive to have sex with their partners. Almost half of the women actually fall into this category and some of the actually want to do something about it. This story, Pills Not Always the Cure for Women Suffering Low Libido, tells us about a case in which testosterone pills actually helped a woman regain her libido, and at the same time, it also states that the low male hormones are far from the only cure.

A typical situation in which sex drive is diminished is after the hysterectomy, you can read an article testosterone for women on this site about it.

Although, as as astrologer, I must add that the quality of your sex drive depends both on your Mars and Venus in the natal chart, as well as on the interplay of these two planets with your partner’s Mars and Venus. (Hint, hint: find a partner with any kind of crossed aspect with your Mars and Venus and you won’t even need artificial hormones!)

Treatments For Menorrhagia Evaluated, UK

Heavy menstrual bleeding (menorrhagia) is a common problem in women. About 5% of women asks their GP about that such bleeding. In previous decades, hysterectomy was the only way to resolve it, but in the meantime, new surgical techniques evolved. Professor Siladitya Bhattacharya of the University of Aberdeen will lead a team of researchers to review the existing evidence about hysterectomy, endometrial ablative techniques (microwave endometrial ablation and thermal balloon ablation), and the Mirena coil. The goal of the study is to establish long term effectiveness of all these methods, and then to create a set of guidelines for doctors to follow in clinical decision making. The estimated publishing time is mid 2010.

Here are the technical details of the proposed study.

New Hysterectomy Offers Faster Recovery

A sugar-coated story of how a woman had increasingly heavy periods and anemia, how her doctor persuaded her to take the uterus out and how she walked home the next day after the laparoscopic, or minimally-invasive, hysterectomy.

This story reads like an open advertisement for hysterectomy. Laparascopy is better than laparotomy, and yes, you do walk away from the hospital much faster as compared to the usual gynecological surgery. What the story does not tell is that from now on that woman will live without her main sex organ, and that can hurt in more ways that one.

Incidentally, in this hysterectomy news here is an animated video of laparoscopic hysterectomy. If you are interested in video presentations concerning hysterectomy, you can use a rich collection of annotated hysterectomy videos from the very site that you are reading now, How To Avoid Hysterectomy.com.

You can learn more about laparoscopy in hysterectomy, here.

Peggy Anderson Blog: September is
National Gynecological Awareness Month

I’ll just quote Peggy Anderson:

I know that I didn’t consider myself at risk. I was at 23 years of age, had cervical cancer, and had a hystertomy. At 33 years of age I had vaginal cancer due to bad cells left over from my surgery from that caused some major problems for me. Hemorrhaging problems that brought me to emergency wards, even though I had a hysterectomy. I had a procedure called cryosurgery or freezing of the cells. (Since I will turn 60 this next year, I don’t get embarrassed about “the little things in life.” Health is important in our society!)

I always say, “Every day is a gift.” This is especially so for many cancer patients, who cherish the rising of the sun, and the smell of a flower, a new taste, a new day, and a new event. We see the beauty in every day and every tomorrow.

Read her blog post about the conditions that can lead to various forms of gynecological cancers.

I’d like to do her natal chart and see why she had all these medical problems and also what enabled her to survive them all for decades.

Sex After Hysterectomy

Here is an ongoing discussion on the effects hysterectomy has on sex. I added a comment and here is what I have said (I’ll record it here, in case they don’t allow my comment on their blog):

================================

Hi to all here

Although my site is active for more than two years by now, I have only today stumbled upon this blog. The comments here show how painful everything about hysterectomy seems to be and what I find most disturbing is this sheep mentality that so many women succumb to. Oh, the doctor said it would be OK, so it must be OK, right? The thought that some real healing should be tried before the surgery is so alien to the Western World that the results really are sickening.

Every illness has its cause. Removing the cause will lead to true healing, but what do women do instead!? They go to a doctor and hope that they will be able to purchase a solution. Hysterectomy is so widespread in the USA because there is an implicit belief that doctors hold the keys to everything and vise versa, if they don’t know what to do, than all the means are exhausted. This enervates me because I know that there are at least 5, 6 or 7 ways to heal uterine fibroids, heavy menstrual bleeding, cancer and so on. In 20% of cases, hysterectomy will be the only way to proceed, but what about those 80% that can really avoid hysterectomy if only they knew it were possible.

Somebody in these comments said it was not possible to predict the outcome of a hysterectomy. Well, it is possible to predict it through the methods of medical astrology. On my site I list many such cases, and I openly give the recipes that helped several women stop their menstrual bleeding, avoid hystrectomy etc. And here we are not talking about $5000 cost of surgery, we are talking about cheap natural remedies such as herbal remedies, homeopathic remedies, enzymes and the like, that can all be gathered for a few bucks from Amazon.

The point is this: if you want to get healed, you will be — but somebody first has to tell you that you can be healed. Surgery is cutting out, not healing. The Moon rules both the uterus and the breasts, and when they take away the uterus, the energy goes to the breasts… which is why so many women on HRT after hysterectomy develop cancer of the breasts.

For the ladies here that experienced sex drive through the roof after hysterectomy, that kind of behavior is astrologically described as an aspect of Mars and Uranus. It may well be possible that such an aspect was made during the surgery, and that it may affect you harder that it normally would. Strong sexual drives may also come as a result of too much testosterone, so everybody with this type of behavior should control their hormonal mix from time to time.

================================

You can read about hysterectomy side effects from this very site. Also, here is what I wrote about sex after hysterectomy.

I got pregnant for the first time in March 2003. My baby was due on December 6 2003. My pregnacy was perfect, no complications, bloodwork was perfect.

I checked into the local hospital on November 19 with mild contractions. I was dialated 1.5. The doctor and hospital said i was in preterm later and it was going to take a long time for me to deliver, so they told me they were going to send me home in the morning so I opted to go home.

On the morning of Nov. 21, I didn’t feel my baby move. She was very active. Always kicking up a storm. I started to get worried and went to see my dr. They confirmed that there was no heartbeat. It was the worst moment in my entire life. She was 37 1/2 weeks and beautiful.

It has been a dreadful 2 1/2 years already. I requested an autopsy and it read DX Umbelical cord thrombosis. A clot had cut her breathing supply.

After my birth, I switched dr’s and went to see another dr. In April 2004. I got pregnate with my 2nd baby. I went to see my Dr. and he said there was no gestational sac. It would eventually lead to miscarriage, and at 5 1/2 wks, it did. I started spotting brown, then bleeding.

I started seeing a homeopathic dr and had 1 mc with him. He said the reason I mc was because my womb was getting ready again for another baby. It started the same, at 5 1/2 weeks, spotting brown, then bleeding heavily. I had nowhere to turn and was so saddened by the fact I could not hold on to my pregnancies.

So in turn, I had a stillborn baby at 37 1/2 wks and 3 miscarriages.

The last pregnacy I had was in Feb. 2005. I’ve been seeing a specialist in Fertility since August 2004. In Feb 2005 I got pregnant again and mc at 5 1/2 weeks. Spotting brown, then bleeding.

He has helped me conceive, but we still have not found the cause for the miscarriages. He has given me Clomid, progesterone, has given me bloodwork exams and so forth. He doesn’t want to give me fertility treatment just yet because he wants to wait on my pap results In June. He said if they come back abnormal, he will give me other treatment for that instead of the fertility treatment.

I’m very scared those results might come back abnormal again and I will never be able to have another child. And even with that, I don’t want to waste anymore time. I am 31 years old and my bio clock is ticking. Sadly, I don’t have any living children yet and that’s why I’m getting very anxious, depressed, and losing hope. I would really appreciate any information you can provide me.

Since this analysis takes hours and hours of my real time to make, I told her to start using the General Energy Pack right away, as a sort of first aid. Here is her comment after receiving two Energy Packs:

Wow.Energy packs makes you feel great. Cant explain the feeling. Feel physically better since I started taking it. Thanks!!

The second surgery was in 1985 in the summer I beleave and it was to remove a bone tumor from my toe. The last surgeries were to remove a tumor from the left fallopian tube (tube was spared as the tumor was on the fascia not the tube itself) and a fibrous tumor from the left axillary region (breast tumor) all benign. Performed sept of 2003. The date is close.

I was diagnosed with endometriosis when I went in for a check up 5-1-06. We started trying to conceive after we got the all clear early 2004. Other than asthma (seasonal) (first symptoms when I was 6 weeks old but undiagnosed until 6 months old) and hypothyriodism (diagnonsed 2004), all else is fine.
