I wish you would leave me alone. Actually, I wish I could reach in and rip you out every single month. You cause me so me much trouble, the cramps the lost sleep the ruined underthings. Why do you treat me so bad ? So what, I say bad things about you to my girlfriends and to doctors who will listen but only because you are so bad to me. Pills won’t help. Hot baths won’t calm you. I know you need stronger medication that only a doctor can prescribe but if I am always at the ER getting a dose of the good stuff then my name will be put on a list and I will get nothing, ever, and that’s not fair to me.
If you keep causing me trouble the doctors will remove you from my body. At least thats the plan. At this point I think there might be a conspiracy between you and the doctors. A torture test of sorts. Let’s see how much pain a person can tolerate. It’s the ‘on a scale of 1 to 10 whats the pain level?’ question that pisses me off from the person at triage who is always a man. Let’s see, on a scale of 1 to 10 how would it feel if I grabbed ahold of your testicles and squeezed them into one tiny mass? Would anyone ever go to the ER for pain at a level 1? I don’t think so, since anyone who has ever been there knows regardless of what you are there for it will be at least a 5 hour trip. So we all do the math before we go. I do math by the amount of pills already in my system to the amount of pain I am still in and how many more pills I can safely consume before either the pain stops or my liver shuts down.
Start treating me better or else. Your days are numbered. You have outstayed your welcome and if you won’t leave on your own (like maybe you could fall out when I am running for the bus) then one day you will be surgically removed from the premises. —Hell Hath No Fury Like a Woman with a Hateful Uterus

yeesh, i feel for you. how old are you?
Buy some morphine online and stick it to that uterus.
BLOODY HELL YOU SAY.
oh, I don’t like where this bitch is going…
It could be worse, you could have a penis!
Do you have endometriosis? Maybe endoscopic surgery could help? I had it done and they removed my appendix at the same time as it was “tethered down” by my lesions. The surgery worked wonders, and I’m now trying to conceive; I’m told that I now have odds which are close to normal. Almost 5 months trying so far, one early miscarriage, but it’s ok; it’s so great to not only feel better inside but also be rid of condoms again, so even if it takes awhile I’m happy! I’m almost 35 though, so it would be nice if it happens sometime in the next 2 years. Good luck OP, I know how you feel; for years there were 2 days a month where I couldn’t move without feeling nauseous with pain. I hope your doctor solves it soon; without having to remove your uterus (even if you don’t want kids, it’s still nice to have, as long as it isn’t ruining your life).
…not that my miscarriage didn’t make me really sad, that is.
i had that surgery twice Z, it sorta helped but i already had one child. my doctor thought giving birth would help with the pain, it didn’t. i have pmsdd also which is why i refer to my monthlies as “i’m going to my treehouse”
WOW! Yes, that’s right Mel…having a penis is MUCH worse… (he said sarcastically)
That sucks, Paingirl; sorry you had to go through that twice! I’ve got a child as well, a 2.5 year old. Did you have your surgery to help you conceive? Funny thing; I didn’t find out about my endometriosis until my little guy was almost a year old. Since he was born i’ve had 3 large ovarian cysts; 2 ruptured and my surgery was for the last one, so the endometriosis seems to have gotten much worse since experiencing birth. I’ve got another cyst now, but it’s small so they’re just going to keep an eye out for the time being. Luckily my uterus is good, I’ve got lots of eggs, a regular cycle and I ovulate…so i’m really hoping it’ll happen sometime despite the endometriosis.
no, actually i conceived after one try, fertility was never a problem. the delivery was bad for me so no more of that. i can actually tell which side my eggs are coming from, that gives my cramps too^^sorry for the icky talk boyos haha
good luck OP…. My cousin had ovarian Cancer when she was little. Anything that involves genitals and reproductive organs is scary and painful as all fuck to deal with.
OP, any time I had a gf with bad monthly troubles, I helped by rubbing the small of her back. It seemed to give a tiny bit of relief.
Hope you feel better.
I’ll rub your lower back if you want…

I wouldn’t want a penis Avast!! I don’t understand… something that can cause such tremendous pain is just hanging there with no protection, perfect height for a swift kick or a child’s fist. Not to mention all the boners I would get just walking around the south end ;D … and not to mention how it just changes size and moves on its own and stuff….weird! And no one has complained about my lady parts being too small…
Might be a dumb question, OP, but have you tried going on BC pills? I don’t have so much of a problem with pain, but I tend to have 4-6 week long bleeding with a two week break and it’d start up again (bastard uterus), so I had to go back on the pill about a year back. I’m having a hard time finding one that works well, though, since I had to go off Yasmin 6 months ago because of all the thrombosis concerns.
Have you had an ultrasound? You should really demand a referral if you haven’t had one. And get the number where the referral is being sent so you can keep getting on them because if you’re young you’ll end up waiting months. My last pelvic ultrasound referral in Halifax took 8 months. Meanwhile, my gallbladder ultrasound took three days. My mom’s pelvic ultra sound took 3 weeks because she’s over 50. And the lady in the waiting room with me waited 2 weeks for a pelvic ultrasound! So get on their asses. Get them to do a basic pelvic ultrasound and a [not so pleasant] trans vaginal ultrasound. It sounds like something’s not right.
And like PG said — sorry for the icky-talk, boys. 😛
Mel does make some good points. I will say, though, that being able to piss standing up (without assistance) is useful in some situations. 😛
yeah, we can write our name without a stencil.
But…I don’t understand, Mel….I was told that size doesn’t matter…???? lol:D
Hah, well I used to think so too Avast ;D but then… yeah. I guess it doesn’t really matter, it just helps a whole lot.
Oh and I can totally pee standing up, I just have to be in a shower. And definitely not my own ;D. Jk ya’ll, lemme in your showers 🙂
In the interests of public safety Mel, you might consider telling us Bitches what gym or fitness club you patronize. Please? >; )
All of them
OP – I have contemplated removing my uterus as well. It was worse when I was a teenager, then I had an Ovarian Cist explode. Since then, they removed an ovary and fallopian tube, and the cramps have been ungodly. My doctor put me on the BC patch – works like Nicorette. The benefit of the patch is that I change it once a week, and it seriously reduces the evilness of my uterus. Might be worth a shot to try for you…
