Posts Tagged ‘hysterectomy’

I know my posting is irregular at best, but I wanted to assure any who wondered, that I am doing fine. I have now joined the company of women who are without their uterus. Yeah, this is a personal topic, but I wanted to make fun of my body and how the anatomy can fail you.

Since there were no Ute’s-r-us, and I was finished with it, the decision to have it removed was made much easier. It had to come out. I want to iterate that elective hysterectomy shouldn’t be taken lightly. To have it removed only because having your cycle is annoying is not reason enough to undergo a serious procedure.

Signs you should have a hysterectomy: (facetious)

Your cervix is now an outtie, not an innie.

Your cramps are severe enough to make your toes ache

Your thought regarding intercourse is not do I have time, but do I have time to recover from it?

Your cycle is more unpredictable than the weather channel.

The drugstore cashier no longer raises her eyebrows as you stock up on the weekly supplies of tampons, liners, ibuprofen and chocolate. (BTW, I have tons of supplies I no longer need woohoo!)

I’m sure there are more great lines out there. Give me yours!
