I had been suffering from Fibroids and endometriosis for close to 14 years, (43 yo) and finally had a hysterectomy last year. I had really heavy bleeding, lots of pain, bowel problems, etc. Alternative medicine remedies never worked for me. Towards the end of uterushood, I was bleeding about 50% of the time and generally felt horrible. A hysterectomy was the right answer for me. I haven't felt this good in a very long time. (I still have one ovary, which helps.)

Surgery is an extreme solution, but sometimes life can suck. Keep an open mind and be thankful your situation isn't extreme. It is frustrating that there aren't more solutions for quality of life health issues for women.

Ride on,
Sarah
