I recently asked to go off of BCP. I'm going to be 32 this year and I
smoke.
I had surgery when I was 26 for a monster fibroid and again when I was 29
for a cyst on my ovary. It started out as a lap procedure, but I had to
have
the whole ovary removed. The other ovary wasn't looking good, but the
doctor
left it as we never spoke of a hysterectomy. I have another fibroid, but
am
holding out as long as I can before having surgery again.
This time it will be a hysterectomy.
I have no children and my hopes of having any have been pretty much dashed
to pieces.
I guess I have 2 questions.
1) It's been awhile since I had to live with the pain of endo. The pill
helped with that.
What can I do to relieve the pain? I'm pretty worried about it.
2) How do you deal with the pain of never having children of your own?
When
I was a child I only wanted to grow up to be a mom.
Now what?
