I had an alternative to a hysto five years ago, though it may not help your specific situation. I had an endometrial ablation done. Best. Thing. Ever. Basically, they burn off the lining of your uterus -- no more monthly visitor. I chose this route rather than a full-blown hysto because my lifestyle is not conducive to a long surgical recovery. Hell, recovering from orthopaedic surgery on my hip two years ago practically killed me and that was only 5 weeks (I made the executive decision to forgo the 6th week).
