    I mean a fair amount of my friends had endometriosis (not sure if that’s a geographic oddity or something worse) and now I’m curious if that could have (whole lot of hysterectomies in the gang) helped.

      I mean if it would that’s just that much more infuriating…

      But I’m not that knowledgeable on the difference between the impact of a cyst and the mechanism that gives cramps. My ex had endo. Miserable experience. I wish your friends the best in managing it.

        Weird, my ex had endo as well… Didn’t want sex for a long time, and I was doing my best to be understanding and not pester her… Then she unexpectedly ended up in the ER with extreme pain and heavy bleeding, bad enough she was on morphine and needed a blood transfusion… It took months, but I eventually found out she had cheated on me with our son’s best friend’s dad, and that apparently triggered the event. Hence why she’s now my ex.
