Title: Uterus pains
Post by: Wesley_33 on December 06, 2011, 06:08:42 AM
What does it mean when you start getting uterus pains after starting T? Never had issues with it before hand. Now I have odd pains I guess. Not something to run to doc for like crazy pains. Just never even had cramps on periods on rare occasion I had them. Is a good excuse to play up the issue and get a hystro??

I am not on t yet, but do get cramps for a day or two each month which is no fun at all.  I would like a total hyters too.  I know you need to good reason if you are young.

I just really wish I could trade with one of the ladies on here. I know it works I have a healthy kiddo. I hope if I play it up a bit I can get the doc to agree to hystro.

If you have had a kiddo and can now demonstrate problems you have a much more chance of getting a hysters.  I am young and no kids and don't want any, just want to get rid of all those internal parts that can just cause me problems some time.  Good luck in finding a ftm friendly GYN.

I found the Ob/Gyn he's working with ton of trans here. I'm sure he would help with hystro too.  This is another one of those times I wish I could lend my son to someone to help them out. Play like he's yours get hystro but I keep him  ;D

I just got diagnosed with PID for the second time in my life (neither time associated with std), and also they found a large cyst and a lot of swelling in one of the ovaries. I had tubal ligation recently, but they said they don't know how this happened or whether it's related to that. I've had a lot of uterine problems this past year, and my gynecologist ignores everything I say and keeps bringing up gender even when it's irrelevant. I think she suspects that either I am or I am going to try to "trick" her into giving me a hysterectomy.

I'm going to a new, confirmed trans friendly gynecologist in January, and I think I'm a great candidate for removal of that stupid pain and bleeding machine. I've had two pregnancies (one spontaneous miscarriage and one full term birth), PID twice, cysts, and I'm 30, sterile, and will be on T in a week. My periods have been pretty hellish for a year and a half. And the whole thing got shifted to one side since I broke my pelvis in a few places in a car wreck awhile back.

Good luck with the gatekeepers. Being on T should be a pretty good argument in itself.

Thats just what they are gatekeepers. I think if I've shown I'm of right mind who the hell are you to keep me from getting hystro. I'm over 30 had kid, since haven't had regular period, now on T having some kinda funky pain ish feelings. All it really does is push us to be sneeky to get what we want. I hate having to be like that.
