I think you describe this beautifully- all the pain and struggle and mental process, all the buts and ifs. Things, that someone more cinical or lucky not to have had a comparable experience,may describe as 1st world problems. I recognise all you say, and while not having had exactly same experience, a similar experience finds every woman, sooner or later.

We are blessed with this potential miraculous capacity of creating live, but boy how much seeds need to still be planted for our society to understand what toll it takes, mentally and physically. But this kind of columns are really important, perhaps it is one little seed that will make a woman of the next generation feel less alone and more in own power.

I had a full hysterectomy, including both ovaries and tubes at 30. I can’t pretend to know what you are going through because we are different people.Just know your body will heal and your mind will heal when you are ready to let it. Love and strength to both you and your husband❤️‍🩹
