Seems a bit pointless to have a mirena when you are expecting a hysterctomy soon.

Iwould delay the mirena till after your hols when you can have time to research your options. Visit your GPand ask for norethisterone which are BC tablets you must take religiously to delay a period happening. They are very good for getting you through a holiday but don't forget to take them, and if you are sick or get the runs try and top up the dose that may be lost. Any break to the taking of them will trigger a period a couple of days or so later, but as long as you are on them, they trick the body in to thinking your are pregnant and don't trigger a period till you are ready for one. It would be a lot easier to cope with that on holiday that any post op pain from having the mirena installed.

The process of having mirena put in can causing bruising inside which can take a few days to calm down, wether you are awake for that or have an anaesthetic to get through it, so delaying the procedure till you are back from hols is a wiser move when you don't know how you will react to it.

I have bowel endo and my bowel was stuck not only to the uterus but the bladder too (it is a deformed shape which explains how that was possible) my surgery was a big hole op but i didn't need or have a hysterectomy for it.

Even having a bowel resection doesn't require a hysterectomy. If you want to hold on to your uterus then tell the surgeon you do not want it removed. They will have to work round it instead.

On the surgery consent form you can also state what you do NOT want them to do in the op as well as agreeing to what the surgeon can do. Use the search box on the green bar at the top of the page and look up bowel resections. A number of ladies have had this and written about their experiences.
