My Hysterectomy & My 10-Year-Old Daughter
Briefly

After suffering debilitating periods caused by fibroids and feeling frustrated with inadequate treatments, I ultimately found relief and empowerment in deciding on a hysterectomy.
For many, including myself, the idea of a hysterectomy brings mixed emotions as it often symbolizes the end of infertility struggles and a complex relationship with femininity.
My family history of painful periods and surgeries led me to believe that opting for a hysterectomy sooner might offer a chance for a better quality of life.
Acknowledging the emotional turmoil around hysterectomies, I am relieved to have made this choice which I hope will bring an end to my suffering.
