Update:
Had my "concern" appointment with my obgyn yesterday. She asked a lot of questions and did a pelvic exam. She said she could feel what she believes are small fibroids, or at least one small fibroid. She recommended a sonohysterogram with an endometrial biopsy to look at fibroids and uterine wall thickness. She said the endometrial biopsy is required in order to get approval for an ablation, if I ever decide to go that route down the road, so she said we might as well do that at the same time as the sono. Without obviously having the benefit of those results, she said her inclination is for me to try an IUD again. That way I don't get the systemic impacts of hormones from BPC (that I didn't like 2 years ago...weight gain and emotional roller coaster), but isn't as invasive as ablation. I tried Mirena about 10 years ago and had it for 9 months and spotted the entire time and had a whole host of other concerns that likely were my undiagnosed gluten issue. But removing the IUD was part of the process of elimination in the cause of those symptoms. So, I may be willing to give it another try and they don't use Mirena now, they use a newer brand.
She did not want to test my FSH as she said so long as I'm having a monthly period my FSH won't have changed to reflect anything. She did test my hemoglobin by finger prick and it was 12.5 which is in the normal range.
So, my next appointment is mid February to get a peak at my insides.

Gluten free since Nov '11 after non-celiac gluten sensitive diagnosis. Have had great improvement or total elimination of: migraines, bloating/distention, heartburn, cystic acne, canker sores, bleeding gums, eczema on elbows, dry skin and scalp, muscle cramps, PMS, hair loss, heart palpitations, fatigue. I'm amazed.
