How to Handle This at 29
So I’ve had endo since 14, diagnosed at 24 and at that time my eggs were no longer viable. I blocked this out of my brain and just a few months ago at 28 I got a full hysterectomy. It’s been such a challenging new reality. I’ve been in chemical menopause since 24, but now it’s permanent. My life revolves around dr appointments, finding HRT at different pharmacies and recovering from surgery. My surgeon found what we suspected, adenomyosis. I was totally debilitated in pain, and know I made the right choice. It’s just hard every day. It feels like it’s not going to get easier. Also I’m so freaked out by having to tell someone I’m dating I can’t give them a child. I broke up with other partners when they said they never wanted kids. It’s just sucks and I have the most supportive family and friends but they don’t get it like anyone else who’s had a hysterectomy. At 24 endo was a huge shock and it feels the same way at 29. Any advice or support would be so appreciated.
