1.5 years post op
I found so much positive inspiration from this reddit group while I was going through my surgery prep and recovery.. I wanted to circle back and do a followup.
My surgery was feb 2025 and I AM SO GLAD I did it! Lots of nerves in the process and the recovery is def a marathon not a sprint! My health has greatly improved, energy, sciatica I didnt know was related, no more 19 day periods, no more crazy pms, no more tampons or bleeding on my sheets at night... so much misery.... gone! SO many benefits.
Just wanted to offer a tidbit into the long term of having a hysterectomy... its scary as hell but for me it has been such a positive change in my life!
Oh and now I can have sex and not worry about getting pregnant... have one beautiful daughter and Im happy with just her:)
