Hyperplasia without atypia
I have been diagnosed as having 2 fibroids, my CA-125 count was .39, and my endometrial biopsy detected that I have Hyperplasia without atypia.
My first option is progestin therapy for 3 months, stop for 1 month and get tested again. My second option is to have a hysterectomy. If my tests are the same in 4 months then a hysterectomy is strongly considered.
My question is: Should I have the operation right away since we can't see if there is cancer, or wait and probably have the operation later? Is it risky to wait?
Much appreciated, LM

hyper plasia and elevated ca 125 is reason for concern I am certain your inteligent to not take this lightly if you have resured your symptoms you know they can be precanerous and the ca 125 is elevated the sooner you get a proper diagnosis the bettter off and more options you have .I am certain you know this is not to be taken lightly not any surgery is...If you have to deal with the pain of a hysterectomy I can help you with tips on dealing with that its very very hard,,,I will help you,,,try to preserve atlest one ovary if possible but it sounds that you need more info,,,read up on ca 125 and hyperplasia...its not a panic but its not a let it go either get help really really soon.
I can only answer from my personal experience and that of so many women I have talked to. A hysterectomy is NOT to be taken lightly. I was told by a doctor that we may as well, " Clean house " while he was removing a cyst, as to save future surgeries for cancer. This is presuming most all of us will develop cancer at some point in our lives. This is insanity. A hysterectomy is NOT a cure all. It causes many problems all it's own. PLEASE, read everything you can and seek out differing views and opinions.
Thanks for the advice. I appreciate it! I've made an appointment to speak to the surgeon about my test results and the surgery.
