Don't Read this Post if you're a Man
Seriously, don't. It talks about girly things.
Have you clicked off, Jim? Joe? Uncle Mac? Nate?
Good bye!
Ok, good.
Ladies, which one of y'all will give me a kid? I only ask because I'm about to perform my own total hysterectomy.
Aunt Flo has won the battle. I'm waving the white flag as high as possible.
I became a woman when I was 12. I've wanted to become a menopausal woman everyday since then. I was put on birth control when I was 14. Now, supposedly the Pill prevents cramps, irregular periods, heavy cycles, clotting, etc.
Ah, yes. Clearly BC developers have never met my reproductive system. Neither have those liars that claim working out helps alleviate cramps. Lies, I tell ya. All lies.
The only benefit (because it sure as hell hasn't helped my PCOS or endometriosis) I've found from taking the Pill for the past 9 years is that I can skip the monthly demon. And believe me, I do. I think I went 7 months between cycles, on purpose, until Flo had other plans and has released her wrath on me for the past 3 weeks.
I'm. Over. It. So very, very over it.
So you mom's reading this-- wanna give me one of your kids? Helene, you have 4, surely you can spare one? Jenna, ditto to you. Anyone? Bueller?
Damn.
Maybe if there was a Period Fairy (similar to the tooth fairy), ala the idea of Bella (who might be my favorite little girl in the world, she's freakin hysterical), Helene's daughter, I'd be less inclined to whine.
Too bad there isn't a test to determine fertility, you know, without doing THE test. Because I would have signed up for that yesterday. I think my doc is finally starting to believe me when I say something very bad will happen if I am unable to have my own child. Very bad.
*end whining*

Re: your comment on mine
I think we all work harder when we are busy, ehh? Gosh I did think about PA but wouldn't it just be about the same amount of work to become a MD? That's what I've always thought.
Nope, I don't have a bachelor's degree yet, I'll have my AA in December though, so all my general education courses are complete.
I love LOVE love the beach, and I live ~30min from it. But between work (I'm a nanny/babbysitter also!) school, and volunteering I'm always beat! So no beach for me most weeks, although I love it being availble to me all year round!
I physically CAN'T work out the first 24-36 hours of my period. If I do, I'll get shaky and almost pass out.
I hope Flo departs and departs quickly!
Has your GYN given you any other options to help? I'll check with my peeps and see what I can find out for you.
