EndometriosisHeavy/Painful PeriodsHysterectomy-FriendlyReproductive Autonomyi was 25, debilitating periods with pain, weakness, gi symptoms 3-5 days every month. after trying ‘conservative measures’ she agreed to do a hysterectomy, and found endometriosis thruout my abdominal cavity. i was awake due to an epidural, and i could tell she was upset by what she saw when she told me she was going to do her best but she probably couldn’t get to my appendix on the way, just too much. but the rest of her work changed my life for the better, forever.
