Saanvi Nair, a 38-year-old software engineer,...
Saanvi Nair, a 38-year-old software engineer, had struggled with menorrhagia since her late twenties. Her periods were so heavy and painful they forced her to plan her work and social life around them, often requiring her to take sick days. She had tried various hormonal treatments and an IUD, but suffered from intolerable side effects including mood swings and migraines. Having completed her family with two children, she was seeking a permanent solution that didn't involve a major surgery like a hysterectomy. Her gynecologist suggested a TCRE as a minimally invasive, effective option to control the bleeding while preserving her uterus. Saanvi was relieved to have a definitive path forward but nervous about the permanence. The day-surgery procedure was straightforward. Post-procedure, she experienced a week of watery discharge and mild discomfort. After her next period was dramatically lighter, she felt a wave of liberation. Six months later, she has only minimal, manageable spotting. The constant anxiety about 'accidents' is gone. She feels a renewed sense of control over her body and her time, no longer held hostage by her cycle, and is thrilled with her decision.
