Nigerian Doctors Are Exploiting Fabriod Surgery




I think Nigerian Doctors Are Exploiting Fabriod Surgery

I got a new tenant who is a medical  doctor, a gynaecologist with FMC.  As usual I engaged him in discussion wanting to know him more and our discussion tipped into his practice as a medical  doctor in Nigeria.  One area that I found disgusting was his brag about fibroid surgery, according to him they handle a minimum of 5 fabriod surgeries every month and sometimes, they corner some to their private hospitals.

I think this is an abuse.

First of all,as a single woman, except your fabriod is life threatening,  LET IT BE!  If your only challenge is heavy flow, please endure it ,  there are drugs that will handle the pain and discomfort therefore, manage it until you're married, why? Because you have to consistently try to get pregnant before you can conclude that fabriod is responsible for your infertility. 

Truth is only the location of a fabriod can  determine if it is responsible for infertility, meaning the mere existence of  fabriod  cannot  prevent conception,  except it is clearly blocking the tubes in that case it's growing either inside the uterus or places that has to do with the fallopian tube outlet  , however, even that can be managed by deep massage.

Fabriod inside the uterus can be managed while there is a baby inside except it has  been  proven that the fabriod  was responsible for a previous miscarriage or it has occupied the whole uterus.

A lot of women have carried pregnancy to term even with the existence of Fabriod.

People have reacted differently  to Fabriod surgery not to talk of the obvious fact that it will regrow again. Some revealed  side effects of Fabriod surgery includes
Seizure of menstruation
Collapse of uterus
Seizure of ovulation
bleeding
Adhesion and scar tissues that will prevent conception
Reduction in the amount of  mucus released
Vagina Dryness
Fowl smell of vagina discharge
Etc

Surprisingly,  most Nigerian doctors are not true to themselves in this regard. They do not take time to educate patients on these side effects as their major concern is the money they will make from it...

Young girls are falling into this sad practice  right, left and center and because it's a secretive society,  they bear these challenges in secret to avoid being label barren.

A recent study has revealed that fabriod surgeries are exposing black women to cancer, there are records of victims  dying 5 years after fabriod surgery. Nigeria doctors need to visit this issue and create better awareness to it and stop exploiting the unfortunate situation

The cost of the medication and the risk of side effects must be weighed against the benefits.

Only a insignificant number of women that had undergone Fabriod surgery were able to conceive afterwards, very limited number. However, the surgery is assumed to increase your chances of conception as a married woman and where it didn't,  begin to consider other methods of conception .

Hey, it's only money that can stop anyone from having a child.... I will discuss that in part 2.
