Crosswords like uteri.
Epic, same thing for me 14 years ago. Happy to talk about anything anytime if you'd like. Of course, everyone's case is different, but, camaraderie and all that. Health vibes your way.
Aren't they something. They're like butterflies, or little pieces of wrapping paper blowing around.

FWIW, I rejoiced when I had my uterus out. Bypassing the "feminine hygiene products" aisle at the grocery store each week still gives me a thrill.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Hope any needed treatment goes smoothly and recovery is easy, Epic!

Crosswords like uteri.
Ah, that looks better. I haven't had the occasion to use that plural previously!

I was watching someone on TV asking "men on the street" about women's anatomy. When asked about a woman's uterus and how many a woman would have, the answers ranged from two to four ... and, honestly, sometimes one is more than enough.

I have to clean the kitchen before I can leave for the weekend - going to hear Eileen Ivers in Mount Vernon, with required stops at the Co-op and a drive out to Pelican Bay Books - and this seems excessive.
Have fun! Say hi to the Co-op for me!

Yes, I had visions of throwing out all the panties with stains that are set aside for "that time of the month" and never buying another pad in my life!
honestly, sometimes one is more than enough.
Every woman I know who has had a hysterectomy absotively recommends it. I guess it'll be a jump start from peri- to for real's menopause, but I sorta doubt I'll miss it.
Everybody I missed, hugs and vibes!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Yep, one uterus is more than enough.(No particular problems here, just annoying.)

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Family note: My mom had two (not discovered until one of them filled up with gigantic fibroids and she needed a hysterectomy, upon completing which they discovered the second one hiding behind the first). Not a fan, does not recommend.

I had my uterus out for fibroids, so I got to keep the ovaries and their lovely hormones. At least for a few years. At which point they had to come out for other reasons. I didn't miss the uterus; I did miss those little hormone factories.
