SeaSky, hysterectomies are definitely not the answer. They cause scarring problems that sometimes create worse problems than the actual issue: menstrual issues are periodic; scarring issues permanent. One practice of therapists I knew had several women in very real and constant pain from them. Plus they also had to deal with the hormonal and spin-off physiological effects of having had an organ whipped out of a synergistic system! The body is not a machine that has dodgy parts that can be fixed in isolation. I wish it were because this is a path I considered. Plus the anaesthetic for some can be dangerous. I have a system which can't tolerate medications.
