My mom has been having heavy bleeding and the doctors said her uterus wall is thickening based on scans. They recommended surgery since this happened before 18 months ago too but now the wall is thicker. Her blood levels dropped from the bleeding and they quoted around 50k for the procedure scheduled this Saturday. Is surgery the best option given her history and current condition?

It's understandable to be concerned about your mom's health. The thickening of the uterine lining (endometrial hyperplasia) and the subsequent heavy bleeding, especially with the blood level drop, are serious issues. Surgery might be a reasonable option, especially if the previous episode occurred 18 months ago and the condition has worsened

What's the best way to permanently remove a rasoli from my uterus? I've heard about laser treatments are they an option for this, and how effective are they compared to other surgeries? I'm a bit worried about the recovery and long-term effects.
The most definitive way to permanently remove "rasoli" (uterin fibroids) from the uterus is hysterectomy, which involves removing the entire uterus. Myomectomy, which involves surgically removing only the fibroids while preserving the uterus, is another option, particularly if you want to maintain your fertility. Laser treatments, like those used for laser hair removal or in laparoscopic myomectomy, are not a primary treatment for fibroids and are not a definitive solution
