A friend of mine has always had very heavy periods and major discomfort, it got so bad that last year she choose to have surgery to remove parts of her reproductive system as she has no intention of having a child. It just makes me feel quite sad on what we have to go through in life.
Hope all is going well with you.
I hope that the surgery brought your friend relief. I agree that all the things we have to go through just kind of stink. Sending you best wishes.
