I had a hystectomy the beginning of Feb and its the best thing I have ever done for myself. I will be 57 next month. All the terruble back pain I suffered with for years is gone too. Mt advice is to use a urogynocologist! They know absolutely what they are doing!

I Had a complet Hysterectomy two years ago. I wish I had not put so much trust in my Doctor. She said i had to have a Hyst. because my uterus was in large and i was in pain. I have had such a hard time with my body since then. I have all kinds of problem. I have done a lot of research and reading since this in my life. THIS DOCTOR COULD HAVE CHANGE MY DIET AND PUT ME ON PROGESTERONE AND I WOULD NOT HAD TO HAD A HYST. I AM ON PROGES. NOW AND VIT. I SEE A LITTLE LIGHT.
