My mom has two large fibroids around 2.6 to 2.8 cm and the report says there are multiple fibroids. She's dealing with heavy bleeding during her periods but no other symptoms. Is there a way to treat this without surgery or an operation?

Your mother's fibroids, even if 2.6 to 2.8 cm, can contribute to heavy bleeding, and the presence of multiple fibroids can amplify this. A doctor should evaluate the severity of her symptoms and assess the location and size of the fibroids to determine the best course of treatment

I've taken misoprostol today at 11 amtwo tablets of 200 mg eachbut there's no bleeding yet. Then, I took another two tablets around 7 pm. How long should I expect to wait before the bleeding starts? I'm getting a bit worried and would really appreciate some advice on what's normal in this situation.

After taking misoprostol, bleeding typically starts within 1-4 hours, but it can take up to 24 hours; since you took the second dose at 7 pm, you may experience bleeding within the next 12-24 hours; however, if you haven't bled or experienced severe symptoms like heavy bleeding, severe pain, or fever, consult your gynaecologist

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
