Thank you for the information, I am going to research that a bit. Before surgery I was taking a holistic medicine called Black Cohosh and it seemed to work. But for some reason during my pre surgery classes it was one of those No-Nos after surgery. I would like to try the natural route for now. I am always freezing, and my hubby has even lately been laughing at me as I am the one turning the fans on!

Everyone keeps telling me to just do it, so I think I am going to call and make the appointment!
So glad to help...You won't regret it if your experience is like mine. I had very slight cramps the afternoon after the friday morning procedure and was just fine for the weekend and went back to work on monday.
The *only* drawback is that it may not be comepletely successful in about 20% of women. Some women had their periods return after a few years. I hope I remain in the 80%. So far so good.
