Guest guest Posted June 9, 2002 Report Share Posted June 9, 2002 Girlfriends, I had a hysterectomy last June, 1 yr. ago! And I still feel like a woman. I was 45. I wish I could have done it sooner. But I had no one to care for my children. My Sister also had her's done about the same time and she is 7 years younger than me. She is so glad she did it. He pain was terrible and I was bleeding to death. When I think to myself no more periods, I get a very joyful feeling!

Guest guest Posted June 10, 2002 Report Share Posted June 10, 2002 I don't think anyone took your view as saying those with no periods are less of a woman, I know, at least, I didn't. I think those who responded including me were just giving you our point of view. I'm glad that you have found it to be something you like, for me, there isn't a single thing that is redeeming about it. I also have endometriosis, so I find it to be even worse than most women do.
