I need some female advice/help. And or anyone in the medical field.
I will be 50 in Jan. Perimenopausal since 2016. I have a hemoglobin of 7.8. Iron is 12. It was 8.4 3 weeks ago. I have severe bleeding- sometimes lasting 30-40 days.
I met with a gynecological surgeon yesterday. I do not want a hysterectomy nor am I a candidate
I had open heart surgery in 2016 for an aortic aneurysm and currently have an aortic root aneurysm that measures 4.65. The surgeon told me yesterday that if I were to need a second emergency open heart surgery that with my anemia this bad that I would not be able to handle surgery and would die. Her biggest concern is getting my iron up. And bleeding to stop.
They want me to do iron infusions and get an IUD
I have horrible reactions to most "drugs" and take nothing. Not an ibuprofen. Not even natural etc. I'm afraid to try beef liver pills.
I dont do chemicals, no deodorant, only natural shampoos cleaners etc
I am terrified to get an IUD
I need help
Make your own beef liver pills by soyrcing organic, grass fed beef, slicing it, raw, into swalloable pills and freeze them down them like you would a pill while still frozen. Dark green leafy vegetables, steamed or sauteed JUST enough to BRIGHTEN them are very high in iron. IRON has an absorption pathway, and it is VITAMIN C. Liposomal is the easiest on the body and can be made at home with a blender to save money. ALWAYS take your iron with vitamin C. So with your, say, Kale salad, have a glass of orange or grapefruit juice, or a cup of rosehip tea.
Add blood building teas to your life. There are so many herbs to help build the blood!
I AM NOT A DOCTOR. NOT MEDICAL ADVICE. I will say though, I have done all of the above for my health.
