    Obviously only a Physician can treat her. Does she have uterine fibroid tumors, something else?

    She has lived with this condition for years and no Physician has helped her?

    I figured out you meant benign tumors - but what does "under the hear" mean?

    Has she seen a second Physician for either of these problems?

    Hi ,
    Im sorry for misspelling I meant "under the hair";she actually have been mostly to a hematologist and not often to ob-gyn but she has done pap smear before which come out to be normal she has to do another one for this year;now when she went to hematologist they are kind of quite because they think she is in pre-menopause stage and that's the reason but I'm kind of researching myself on what kind of tests can help figuring out the cause of her conditions but I'm worried because she has been like that for 2-3 years now and now she is actually telling me that she is very week and she has other symptomes that I mentioned before. Please help me with whatever info that you have and what must be done if you know naything ;thank you so much for taking your time and responding me...

    I had heavy bleeding, anemia, felt weak and tired, had fibroids, had a hysterectomy. I was young for the procedure but no other medical procedure worked for me.

    Has she had a sonogram?
