Upon a visit to her physician, it has been discovered that the patient is symptomatically anemic and does not have any type of tumor, cancer or other abnormality. The bleeding is symptomatic of peri-menopause, which can last for several years. The physician explains that a hysterectomy, surgery to remove the uterus, will alleviate all symptoms. The surgery can be performed as day surgery and with minimally invasive techniques. The patient is otherwise healthy.
The patient states that she understands that if she has the surgery, the vaginal bleeding will stop, she will no longer suffer from anemia and the accompanying dizziness and fatigue. She knows that the surgery is minimally invasive and she will likely go home the same day as the operation. She refuses the surgery, however, because she is about to be married and wants to have children with her future husband.
