    Just Diagnosed

    Oh No

    My gynecologist called me following an endometrial biopsy. My 1st reaction was how could I possibly avoid surgery

    Surgery

    Procedure or Surgery

    My body is definitely not the same following surgery. I was still having periods every month prior to surgery and landed in instant menopause after surgery.

    Went as Expected: Agree
    Minimal Recovery: Strongly Agree
    Minimal Side Effects: Disagree
    Minimal Impact to Daily Life: Disagree

    I felt a loss following the removal of my cervix, uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes and lymph nodes.

    Loss

    This person has yet to add any details about this experience.
