I'm Having a HYSTERECTOMY...Revealing Big News x 2💥 

Anybody had a DaVinci hysterectomy? Please share your experience with me!! I'm craving information and personal stories. It calms my anxiety to hear from women who have been through this.

I'm so glad you are getting the surgery. I refused when I was your age, and then at 67 found out I had advanced uterine cancer. I wish I hadn't been so afraid of the surgery back then. I had no choice about the surgery last December and it was a piece of cake. No pain. I had no issues with the gas. Was up and walked a 1/2 mile the next day, and a mile the day after that. Now I just pray the cancer hasn't spread elsewhere. You are doing the right thing!

I am 54. I had my hysterectomy in 2010. I was hemorrhaging every month and sooo anemic. My beautiful doctor gave me my surgery as a gift bc I didn't have insurance. She told me it would change my life and give me a whole brand new life and she was absolutely right. It was the greatest thing that has ever happened to me physically! I'll be praying for you!

I had my laparoscopic hysterectomy 10 years ago this month. I'm 53. My quality of life improved so much... the pain, bleeding , feeling miserable..gone. It is scary, surgery always is but in general if you listen to your Dr , rest when needed, and let your body heal, you will do fantastic. Enjoy that vacation and book another one for spring/ summer when you are feeling super good! 😄

I had a complete hysterectomy at the age of 47. I had several issues among them, a stunted uterus, a fibroid tumor as big as my uterus, and my ovaries were covered in polyps. I am now going on 60 years old, and my quality of life after the surgery has been improved 100%!! Once you have healed you will feel so free.

Had knee replacement. Do exactly what dr tells you. Found tub bench great. Handheld showerhead 8ft was fantastic. Best for me was 5inch toilet seat extentor. Dropped right into the toilet. All 3 items at homedepot - Less than $70. Got friend to walk and feed my dog twice daily for a month. Neighbor cooked dinner for 2 wks. I bought frozen items, soup, paper cups and plates - basically enough food for 2-3 weeks I could just heat. Did massive laundry day before operation. Had loose comfy clothes and shoes. Short no fuss hair cut. Arranged for phy therapy and taxi to/from. I felt tired for a few weeks due to meds and it is major surgery. Knee is trying to heal. And all there is is a slim 7in Band aid on the knee! Did I really have a major operation? Yes. Be good to yourself. Take it easy. Do NOT think you have to do everything as before: prep food -cook food -wash dishes -do laundry -sort -iron -put away -feed dogs - wash dog bowls -clean dogs. I doubt you will be allowed to bend over or be able to stand long periods. Ask friends and family to come and help you. You had MAJOR surgery. Your body had a massive boo boo. It needs time to heal. Hope some of this helps. I will say a prayer.

I had a radical hysterectomy in my early forties! Best surgery ever! My prayers are with you! It’s time when things change. 🥰💕🙏

I had a total hysterectomy at 33 after years of endometriosis, fibroids, and hell! I’m 52 now and I will say eventually finding bio identical hormones saved me - I’m actually going back on them. I had this laparoscopically as well and will say - I felt 100% better after but you have to heal. Everything easy! Congratulations on no more periods!!! Life changing.

My 42-year-old daughter just had the same experience as you. Heavy periods, anemic, Iron infusions every 6 months then finally, she too had pre-cancerous cells and had a laparoscopic hysterectomy done the middle of November. She did very well, not a lot of pain after, was able to get around pretty good right away. Her scars are already healing nicely and will most likely not be noticeable at all down the road. I had a Hiatal hernia repair a couple of years ago, also done laparoscopically and you cannot tell where the holes were, not kidding! Good luck to you and your lovely daughter.......I loves me some Etsy!

The scars are nothing. Little spots. You’ve got this lady! 👍🏻👍🏻💕🙏🥰

So many of us have had this same surgery and I was so happy to have done it. I was only 40 and my fibroids felt like I had a brick in bottom of my stomach. Never had any regrets just relief. Having a great doctor who does this weekly is important and I believe you have one.

I had a hysterectomy 2 years ago and it is the best thing I have ever done. My life is so much better now. I no longer live in pain and discomfort not to mention the constant worry and having no energy all of the time. It all came to head when one day I almost had a heart attack from having lost so much blood and my iron levels dropped so critically low I had to call an ambulance because i thought I was going to pass out in the shower while I was home alone and my heart had been racing all day just sitting still. I was rushed to the hospital in the ambulance and had two blood transfusions that night. I was ready to beg for a hysterectomy at that point but the doctor suggested it first. I wish I had had a hysterectomy years ago but I just thought if I could just get to menopause it would all be over. My gynaecologist told me I had a fibroid that was consistent with the size of a twenty week pregnancy. I am so glad it is gone and I am back to living a normal happy life free of that thing. I was 52 when I had my hysterectomy and I had been suffering for at least 20 years. You might want to think about Randy taking a few days off work post operation to help with things around the house so you can rest and recover.

Thank God your cells weren’t cancerous. I lost my baby sister from cervical cancer. She was 3 months shy of her 50th birthday. This happened in 2020 and I’m still not doing well with her death. I’m sending prayers for a smooth surgery and a speedy recovery. I hope you have a great vacation before your surgery.

I am 63 and my period went away when I was 50. A few years before I had very hurtful heavy periods. That is how it started at age 12. My Iron went down and I had to up the Iron. I went thru breast cancer 4 years ago. I am so glad you don't have cancer. Praise the Lord.

Renee, I had a Davinci hysterectomy in Ann Arbor 6 years ago- (I am 61 now) I had endometrial cancer. You are right, that word stopped me in my tracks. It was surreal walking into the building with the word cancer on the front. But, I got through it just fine. My recovery was great, and did not even have any gas to deal with. They gave me pain meds to get through, and honestly did not even have to use those! I also had to give myself shots in the abdomen of a blood thinner to prevent clotting those first few days at home. That was a bit intimidating at first, but I knew I had to do it, so put on my big girl pants and got through it fine. You will get through this great, too. You are healthy, and will be back to your normal self in time for pool season. :) If you have any questions, I am happy to answer them for you. This scary time will be a memory soon enough. One plus- no more periods! Hugs being sent to you!

I’m so sorry that you haven’t been feeling well for so long. I had a partial hysterectomy when I was 33 years old. I had a large cyst on one of my ovaries. I had my ovary and my fallopian tube removed because they were diseased from the cyst. Come to find out it was all caused by endometriosis.Take it easy after surgery and when all is said and done you will feel so much better. I’ll be praying that you have a speedy recovery. God bless ❤️

It’s not weird that you’re looking forward to the surgery. You’re ready to feel better and be well and healthy. Maybe you can put the dog food and anything else you need to access in your snack cabinet so it’s not on your counter. You’ll do great and you have your family to help you. Let people help you. Ask for help when you need it and accept it when people offer. Enjoy your vacation!! Congrats on your daughters Etsy store!

Renee, I'm so sorry to hear you have to have surgery. I'm 52 in full-blown menopause. Just got an FSH blood test to solidify that I am truly in menopause. The hot flashes, weight gain, etc. have been relentless. So I hope this surgery helps you feel better. Thanks for being so open and taking us on your journey! I will be checking out the new Etsy store too❤🩷

I had cervical cancer years ago and had a hysterectomy. Sorry you need this but you will do good and I send you my prayers.i did fine with having that done.

Keep fasting as much as you feel able. It will help you heal. Prayers for the best possible outcome and complete healing 🙏

So sorry to hear Renee but you will feel so much better when it is over. I am 62 and had a total hysterectomy this past October. My fibroids were multiple and so huge that I thought that I was the octomom, just given birth to multiple creatures. I was 17 lbs lighter after surgery and apart from a few very mild hot flashes, I have been feeling very good. Thankfully, No more fatigue and cravings.I wish you all the best in your surgery and I am sure that you will be fine. I have no plans for hormone replacement, no matter what. I will use holistic means if necessary and let nature take its course.

I had radical hysterectomy at 27. My story sounded much like yours, but I had cancer. Had to have radiation after for 3 months. It has been gone since then. 64 yrs. Now. My 1 son is 41 yrs.My thoughts/prayers are with u. My recovery was also 6 weeks. I healed quickly in 4 weeks went back to work! U are a strong woman. I have faith in u and the Dr.

The first time I had laproscopic surgery I had that shoulder pain from the gas; it helped to have my husband lightly 'chop' my upper back with his hands. The pain lasted one day. A few months ago I had my gall bladder removed laproscopically and was dreading the gas pain--good news, I had none!

It doesn't sound like you can push the grocery cart either. Happy for you to get this resolved, and praying for your quick recovery.

Renee, You are going to get through this with no problems. Focus on the positives. I had breast cancer at the age of 49 and immediately went into menopause I have not had to take any medications or had any ill effects. I trusted my doctors and had a positive attitude. I will be 66 in February. You have all of us on your side and we will be praying and cheering for you.

I have had a few laparoscopic surgeries because of adhesions and gall bladder. The incisions heal very well and almost unnoticeable . Please take the time to heal properly and gentle walking helps to release that gas from the surgery. Have your family pamper you for a while. I wish you all the best 🥰🤗

I had a complete hysterectomy when I was 24. Best decision I ever made. Never looked back and have/am lived/living a great life. You will wish you had had it done even sooner. How blessed that there are skilled doctors and procedures to help us heal…God is good!!,

I had a full hysterectomy and overy removal at 27. I had a couple of very tough years after beginning with a pap that came back serious. I had procedures done but nothing stopped the disease and profuse bleeding. I desperately wanted children. It was very much a sort of death experience. Women my age weren't having hysterectomies. I couldn't find any support in my family or outside. You are so fortunate to have this at this time in your life and have a family. Things are so much better medically and support. The surgery I had was so difficult with a long recovery physically. Mental recovery took a very long time. Many women would say things to me because I never had children. I found I needed hormone med about 9 mos after surgery. I felt like I'd hit a wall at 90 miles an hour. Hormone replacement made me feel so much better. Again, you are very fortunate to have this type of procedure. Its much easier than traditional and recovery time is faster.

How bad the gas issue will be is related to how much they can squeeze out of you once it’s done. It will vary...you may have a lot or none. It just has to dissipate on its own - not related to gastric gas. Sometimes it just takes painkillers to get through those days. The anesthesia will be the best sleep you’ve ever had 😅 it’s a nerve racking day to go through surgery, but you will be a trooper!

We all wish you the very best during your surgery and recovery when it happens. I had laparoscopic surgery for a different reason and that was for my colon cancer. They took out a part of my upper colon during the surgery. They used kind of like a surgical "glue" to close me up because the holes they used to place the laparoscopic tools were not overly big. The recovery from this type of surgery went well for me. I didn't have any negative results from it and the pain level was very low/small. You will do great, Renee. Take care.

I send so much love Renee, I've been blessed not had these issues. We're here for you hun.

You will feel so much better. I had a total hysterectomy in 95. I had the same issues you are talking about. Don’t worry. You will be surprised how much better you will feel. Love and prayers to you and your family.

I think people have u worked up a little about what to expect with surgery. Your incisions will be very small and will leave very minor scars. I had my gallbladder removed a little over three years ago. Scars are hardly noticeable. The gas is not that bad either. U may be a little crampy from it but no big deal. Prayers for a successful surgery. Yay for B’s new shop! Love the cat designs!!

So glad you are getting it done my sister did and she has never been happier and healthier. Hope you feel better soon.

Best of luck Renee. You've got this lady! I hope your surgery goes well and the recovery goes fast and I'll be thinking about you. I'll also check out your daughter's Etsy store. How exciting! Thank you for sharing I know that put you in a vulnerable spot but at least you got a bunch of people wishing you well and praying for you and the more the better.

Sending you lots of love, hugs & prayers! Enjoy your vacation, get through this rough patch & before you know it, you’ll be relaxing by your pool with your boys! ❤️

Prayers and love sent for a very successful and peaceful surgery...Congrats to your daughter on her Etsy shop!!!

B should do all kinds of pets designs, cats, dogs, birds, iguana’s, lizards, gerbals, etc.

You will recover and feel better than you have in a long time. I wish you the best

Sending you a hug from down under. You have taken a huge step to recovery. Best wishes for a speedy one.

Sweet Renee.. I'm really glad you shared your story with us Since our last chat I have been feeling a little better about my issues also! Your a little father along than me..I have a few things I have to do before I'm scheduled.. You're an inspiration to me more than you know my friend...just know that when someone is in a dark place it's hard to realize exactly what you might be doing for someone else...but you've chose to put it out there I THANK YOU for that.. See ya around soon 😉 Congratulations B!!! 🥳🎉🥳 You've definitely got your Mommas ambition...You will do great things 💛

Blessings to you Renee. You are a trooper and will rock this journey. Kind of you to document for others.

Girl, all our thoughts and all our prayers are with you ❤️❤️♥️♥️💓💓 You are going to be fine!! Many of us have been through this and totally get it. You Go Girl!!

Awe sweetie, hope your recovery is quick and that you feel better real soon😇

Sorry for all you’ve gone through, prayers for a successful surgery & recovery.🙏

Hi Renee. I had a total laparoscopic hysterectomy last year with the DaVinci robot. The scars have healed really well already. Just be sure to take it easy and rest for a full 6 weeks afterwards. My surgeon was adamant about that. No lifting and no dog walking. Rest rest rest.

Hey Renee, thank you for sharing your hysterectomy story with us. Thank God there is no cancer. I wish only the best for you. Praying you will feel more like yourself once you get on the other side of this journey. So proud of your daughter!! What an exciting time for her! Enjoy your vacation!❤️🙏

Thank you for sharing, and thank you for educating us about the importance of maintaining good health and following up with our doctors. Wishing you only the best! Be positive. Also, good luck to Breckin and her Etsy store.

You should feel so much better! Prayers and the best recovery.

I can relate to what you are going through. I had a full hysterectomy at 27 years old I am 50 years old now. I had three large fibroids. The pain and bleeding was horrible. It was a big relief to have it over with. You will feel so much better in no time at all. Just take it one day at a time. My prayers for you for the surgery and recovery.

All the best on your surgery❤Looking forward to the dog designs.

I am glad to hear no cancer and glad to hear you are going on vacation. I am sorry to hear that you have to have surgery But thankfully sounds like you have a GREAT Doctor. My Pony/cat and I are behind you and you are in my prayers 🙏. Can you put up some temporary curtains under your cabinets to hide the clutter that's going to be on your counter tops? Think about organizing your cupboards like you were too short. I'm very short and most kitchen cupboards are too tall.I have to arrange everything so that I can reach it. Think about having Randy put up a temporary peg board. It can be help staying organized and be arranged very attractively. Easy store, what a marvelous idea 👍

So glad you are taking care of your issues! You will feel better so soon! 💕💕💕

Sending prayers...and a speedy recovery! You Will be fine!🙏

Ms. R...knowledge is power and discovering the truth and the protocol for your health moving forward, as scary as it is, gives you all the tools to deal with this life altering surgery. Prayers up for you Renee and your return to good health. As for Brecken, she certainly has inherited her Mom's entreprenurial spirit - CONGRATS and hopes for every success in her ETSY venture.

Wishing you the peace and courage you need. You are a healthy woman and will be fine. Enjoy your vacation. Congratulations to Brecken for opening her own Etsy store. She is following in Mom's footsteps, being an entrepreneur. You both are an inspiration for women. Go Girls!

I'm sorry to hear your news, it's natural to be nervous about any surgery but it sounds like you're in good hands, you've done your research, and found the right surgeon. I've had 3 major surgeries to my stomach over the last 43 years. An emergency C-section, vertical cut all the was down my stomach. I had a full hysterectomy in 2002 (horizontal "bikini cut" at 45 due to adenomyosis, which is the opposite of endometriosis and laparoscopic Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy in 2017. None were fun... each was different and healed differently as well. Yes, the gas they put in to do the laparoscopic surgery was painful but no where near as bad as my first two stomach surgeries! I'm founder and admin of a FB support group for weight loss surgery and they're all done laparoscopically now. My 3 best tips I give all the time at our group: 1) ASAP after surgery WALK, WALK, WALK, and then WALK more! No meds given seemed to help dissipate that gas pain more than walking! 2) Make sure a nurse or Ooccupagtional PT shows you how to properly get out of bed after stomach surgery! It involves your elbow and arms, putting legs over side of bed and letting the momentum help lift you to sitting position on edge of bed. (There are RU-vid vids, the best one I've seen is quite old - but shows it best! (I won't link it here). And 3) Use a pillow over stomach to cough, sneeze and laugh - TRUST me! Sending lots of Love & Light for a successful surgery and speedy recovery! And congrats and best wishes for your daughters successful business. (Also... enjoy that vacation it looks beautiful!)

Thank you for sharing Renee. You sound ready to do this.. put it behind. 👍 Lots of support from Randy and the girls, plus your RU-vid family♥️ Your journey is helping others and hopefully the feedback, in turn helping you. Brecken is so lucky to have a mom like you who has set an example of being a successful woman in life and business! Congrats👏to her. Those are really cute and unique glasses. Have a good weekend.

Renee, I'm so sorry you have to deal with the surgery but you will feel so much better as a result, so well worth it! Congrats to Brecken on the opening of her etsy store! We love cats!!! I am in Florida right now but will be sure to order something when I get back home (and can receive the delivery). The designs are beautiful! Best of luck to you both.

Praying for you, Randy, the girls and the whole family. 🙏🏽 ❤

Good for Brecken! I hope her store does well. Good luck with your surgery. Relax and enjoy your vacation and forget all about it. You deserve a break.

So happy to hear it wasn’t cancer - will keep you in my prayers - best of luck to Brecken

I wish you all the best for the procedure. You are fit and healthy which hopefully means a speedy recovery! Randy will have to help out a lot at home for a while 😂 but he, your family, Polux, Maxie and friends will be there to help and support you ❤

Renee best of luck with the surgery. Have a wonderful time in Mexico and relax as much as you can. Also congratulations Brecken on your new business.

You will feel so good after the surgery! I had one when I was your age and I felt so much better after the surgery. I am very happy for Brecken and will check out her site. She gets her creativity and gumption from you!

Prayers over you!!!! You’ll be great!!!!

On to better days and restored health for you Renee!! Prayers and good vibes your way!! Take the needed rest. Your body will thank you. ❤ How exciting for Brecken’s Etsy store 🤩

Approach the six weeks as a sabbatical. Not thinking about what you can't do, but focusing on stillness and rest. Maybe be creative just for pleasure, read, meditate, etc. Also, I've had the gas for a laparoscopy. Felt it a bit soar, but not more the I would after a mild workout. The scars aren't visible anymore after a couple of years. And it's fine to cry if you are scared. It's a big deal. Hope this will bring you what you are hoping for. ♥️

I have not had an hysterectomy, I have had a cervical cancer scare, they were able to get clean margins and been fine ever since. Prayers to you and your family for peace.🙏🏼🥰

God Bless you Renee! I'll be praying for an easy recovery! Enjoy your vacation!

That was so educational. I'm 80 and past that need and now I feel well informed .I love your show because of your variety of things,decorating, food and pets. I love your pleasant personality. I pray your surgery goes well

I NEVER expected either of these particular "big news" announcements. I "love" you both and wish you only the best in both your life events. 🤗🙀❤🐶

Thank you so much for sharing! Enjoy your time in Mexico and I will definitely be checking out Brecken's Etsy store.

Well wishes to you and a speedy recovery Renee. ☺The worst part for me was waking up and being in full on menopause with hot flashes at the age of 35. I’m currently 59 and did great without HRT. Good luck and don’t push yourself. You got this 💪🏼💜

Congratulations Brecken! Rene I will be praying for you. Peace for you, Randy, the girls and the rest of your family.

Thank you for sharing this! You have an army of loving supporters out here sending you love and light. You've got this Rene and we've got you! The upside is, an even flatter stomach!! Enjoy Mexico and know that everything is going to be fine. God is watching over you and so are we. 💕

Renee, you have taken great care of yourself. You'll be good as new in no time sweetie!! I love your channel and look forward to hearing how fast you heal and move on.

Hi Renee, Thank you for continuing to produce your wonderful videos while having to deal with all your health issues. You are truly amazing and I wish you all the very best for your surgery and recovery.

Big news in the family💕Well done for taking the time to get yourself in the right headspace to prepare for the surgery. I started menopause in my late 40s so, early or late, we all get there and move on through the inevitable process. Easy for some, more problematic for others but all part of moving forward in life. Thank you for sharing. I am sure all the positive vibes, genuine best wishes and online love will help get you through. Best wishes also for ‘B by design’. I am sure that your support for the launch will be an great asset. 🥰🇦🇺

I hope you have a lovely vacation and a speedy recovery from surgery.

Renee, I'm so sorry you're going through all this. So relieved to hear it's not cancer. And congratulations to B girl for her Etsy shop.

So many hysterectomys, I am comforted to hear the satisfied women. Hysterectomy and C section are the most preformed operations in the US. I had pelvic reconstruction surgery in 2008 to repair multi organ prolapse, my bladder, uterus and rectum had all lost support. This started with a forceps assisted birth and an episotomy. Hysterectomy was suggested at the time but I said no. I believe I was very naive at the time and did not do enough research. These surgeries do not have a very good outcome. It had to be redone 4 months later, the mesh had disintegrated. I woke with terribe pain that I thought was to be expected. My pudendal nerve was damaged and I have been in that terrible pain every day all day for 14 years. Changed my life, stole my life. You have done your research and there are so many successes, you will be one of them. I will be thinking of you and sending positive thoughts your way. All the best to you.

Oh my goodness I won't lie I teared up I was afraid you were going to say the c word. I'm so thankful that is not the case and you'll be in my prayers for a fast recovery ❤

The future you will be so happy that you had this surgery! Just take all the prep and recovery with grace and take care of yourself. You will be back to yourself in no time! Take the break you need to recover and be grateful that you have such a supportive family! Sending Prayers!

thank you for sharing this news. I know that you are nervous, but I think in the long run you are going to be feeling so much better and you will have a whole new lease on life, Renee! I have had two girlfriends who went through the DaVinci method and they had awesome recoveries! You are lucky to have a great Doctor and a supportive husband in this journey! and of course your girls and youtube family~ and congrats to B- I can't wait to check out the shop!

You will feel so much better after the surgery! I had a complete hysterectomy in 2009 at the age of 47. I did not experience any pain from the gas they use so hopefully you won’t either. Prayers for a speedy and uneventful recovery! ❤

My prayers are with you. Wishing you nothing but best with your surgery.

I had a partial hysterectomy 18 months after my second daughter was born 25 years ago (I was 36). I had endometriosis, adenomyosis, and uterine fibroids. Only one ovary was removed at that time. But barely a year later, the ovary that remained grew a cyst that was the size of a grapefruit and I developed scar tissue that attached all over my digestive system. So that resulted in a complete hysterectomy. I was on a low dose hormone for about 10 years with no side effects. After 10 years of hormone replacement therapy, my GP advised to stop taking it since I was approaching my 50s. I experienced very mild menopausal symptoms for about a year after ceasing hormone replacement therapy but overall, I’m glad I had the hysterectomy because I was pain free from all that comes with all of those female issues. My prayer for you is that God watches over you as you go into this surgery and that He guides the surgeon’s hands skillfully.

Renee, I am going to keep you in my prayers. We are a year apart and I am going through a new diagnosis of MS. God has us both.

Prayers for you Renee! I had a partial hysterectomy several years ago basically for the same reason you are except for the cancel cells, but I felt so much better after I healed of course! I’ll be praying for you!

I am confident that you are going to be fine. My older sister had that laparoscopic surgery 5 years ago at age 69 because she also had a large fibroid that grew to the size of a grapefruit. She is very active and feels like a new woman. I think Brecken will be very successful with her Etsy store because her designs are beautiful. I have had an Etsy store for years and it's a great platform. Best wishes to her.

You will feel so much better after the surgery and recovery! By June you will be back doing everything you love💃

Stay strong Rene . You will be fine . My daughter had a 7 lb fibroid removed and a complete hysterectomy the same as you are going to have just last year .She was 44 years old . Thank God we have access to the wonderful technology to allow us to lead healthy lives ! Sending love and prayers for you and your family

I wish you the very best and I'm believing everything will go well with your surgery and with your healing. While I have not had a hysterectomy, I have had 6 surgeries in my lifetime. The last time was in 2021 where I had 2 major surgeries 5 months apart. I now live with 60% of my colon. But my God is soooo Good and I am still here!! Thank You Jesus 😊 I want to share with you my experiences with anesthesia with EVERY surgery. 3-6 months after every surgery my curly hair would start shedding with a vengeance and breaking with such fury. Anesthesia racks havoc on my hair! With my last 2 surgeries the damage was brutal. With vitamins and supplements, haircuts, conditioning hair cleansers...not shampoo...and with my Theradome LH 80 (yup, had to buy one) my hair has improved greatly. I have far less breakage and shedding. Please read up on the effects of anesthesia on the hair. I pray you never experience what I've gone through but if you do, run, don't walk, to a dermatologist. It's not my intention to frightened you, but to advise you of what could happen. Hopefully, you are fortunate and will never experience anything hair issues at all. I pray 🙏.

Been there and done that!! It was wonderful having the surgery. Minimal pain, no more painful periods. It will be so worth it!! Good luck!!!

Hi Renee thanks for sharing your life with us. I am sending prayers your way for a safe surgery and recovery. I am sure everything will be fine, and your quality of life will improve when it is all said and done.

I’m a physician and had this procedure a few years ago -same reasons bleeding fibroids and my left ureter was cut --badness ensued -be sure to ask your ob/gyn about this risk -I wish I had asked -I’m a doctor myself and would have used someone else if I had asked more questions ….

I had the same surgery last year! I did have endometrial cancer! I had absolutely no problems or pain! You will feel so much better when you have the surgery!

I had traditional hysterectomy when I was 44. I am 85 now and I have lived a fantastic life ever since that. The surgery was simple I was back to normal within 5to 6 weeks. I also had my cervix removed. I had traditional surgery of course and I was cut one side to the other across my pubic area. I had replacement hormone until I was 65 years old. Remember I am 85 now and have had no problems from the surgery.

You will feel so much better as long as you follow Dr's directions. Prayers coming your way.
