However noone gave a crap like they do now.
Women need to keep as many of our reproductive organs as possible. Things can and will shift. We also need what they provide.
Doctors are so quick to do complete hysterectomies, when they are not needed.
Mine was unfortunately needed.
I was not at all implying otherwise, I had been walking around for who knows how long with a 10 centimeter cyst on the first ovary removed (our ovaries are very tiny). I had been releasing clots the size of golf balls for 4 months before I drive myself to the ER because I was so fatigued. Some fresh frozen plasma did wonders, lol. I may sound like a pain in the ass, but women and children are 2nd class citizens around the world including the USA. This presents itself in the medical community all the time, now that more doctors are aware of the importance of hormones (bone strength, regulating our bodies, etc) and keeping the placement of organs things have improved somewhat. I'm just someone who advocates for everyone to have a voice when it comes to their medical care, and I especially advocate for women to be more pro-active in the knowledge and question arena.
They would have taken my uterus (I gave them consent , depending on what the situation looked like , to remove what was necessary. I didn't have any children so there several factors involved, however I was in nursing school and the uterus was going to be a long down time, as opposed to the one ovary. I still caught shit for that one day. Only missed class, no clinical.
Take care, you are amazing.
Oh no, sorry if my tone was off. Hard to convey on a text post. I was in the same boat, was a surrogate and that's how they found the cyst I had. Once I delivered I was able to have the full hysterectomy because I was at risk of my uterus prolapsing.

Oh, what a beautiful thing to do for another person. Do you have children? Or did you ever want any? I never saw myself with children, even though I love kids, 9/10 love me, that one we usually can come to some kind of negotiation.
When I got finally got back in the ER they tried to do a vaginal UltraS, and I about kicked that lady off of her feet. I felt so bad, bc I wasn't in pain at the moment, lol, couple midol, half a Xanax, some Aleve,so I was relaxed, till my leg shot out.
I never had anyone in my life that wanted children.....I am not in the belief that all women are created to have babies.
I believe they need the best possible start which is 2 people. Never too much love .........
