lol.. i know, right!! although its a bit squirmy thinking of them doing things through your hoo haw, its a much better alternative. I've heard that they do that with kidneys too, but not here in canada, sadly....

Kidneys?? Really? My mom had a transplant 15 years ago, and did fine open, but wow, vaginally would have been better.

I'm seeing another OB/GYN in the new year to discuss hysterectomy vs ablation.

i don't think they can put them IN, vaginally, but i have heard of them taking them OUT that way. I wish!! i'm giving one away in march, and that would make things much easier. I'm trying to talk the surgeon into getting a plastics guy in there at the same time, and doing a panniculectomy at the same time, but not having much luck there.

Good luck with your discussion! i've heard lots of good things about ablation.

LOL. I actually should have said that it would have been good for my aunt, the donor. NO, I don't think they could have put on in that way either LOL. Good for you for donating....gift that keeps on giving for sure.

I am hoping to have two surgeries at once as well. WHen I go for my bowel fix, I would like to have the ablation or vag hysterectomy done at the same time.
