I had Her Option two weeks ago. I'm 49, no kids and had very heavy periods with lots of clots. Periods started lasting 2-3 weeks and I was tired all the time. The biopsy and SIS assisted ultrasound were actually more painful than the actual procedure. The Her Option was not bad. I had Xanax and Oxy and they gave me a shot of Thoradol in the rump and then litocaine in the cervix. I chatted thru the whole thing, then went home and took a nap. That day and the next, I had bad cramps and used a heating pad. Since then, just yellowish and or watery discharge everyday, if I take a bath, I notice little flakes of sloughy material going down the drain, etc. Waiting to get first period to see what that will be like, but prepared to wait several months to assess the result, so if the next one is heavy I won't be surprised. One thing I didn't realize is that you cannot use tampons the first 3 weeks because of risk of infection. Having never been a pad user, I had to go buy all kinds of different stuff, not knowing what I'd like the best. So, no problems here.
