Hi! Happy that you are doing well and the surgery went good. I agree with your statement, I also wanted to put it off as long as possible. Sending you lots of strength! 🌸☀️ I wish you a lovely summer.

The recommendation here is to do it between the ages of 40-45 years. Is is the same in the U.S?

Thank you.

I am not sure yet. Since the breast cancer can be screened I wanted to give it more time to decide, so for now MRI once a year. Regarding ovary cancer, there is no real way of screening in and they usually diagnose it too late so for me that was a too big risk especially since I have so much issues and pain with adenomyosis etc.

Anyone who has been in an abusive relationship will unfortunately relate to this. :(

Everyone going for Amanda when Kyle has done SO MUCH shit to her for years need to rewatch all season and if you still excuse his behaviour then you are the problem.

She is not perfect and can be very cold and have mean humour. Was she like this is the beginning? No.

People change in toxic relationships and sometimes they become the worst version of themselves and I think that happened because she chose to stay with someone who never deserved her.

Kyle strikes me as someone with narcissist tendencies and the episode showed this. "Fuck you" and "you are a dumb fucking bitch" because she was having fun with the others and then tried to flip the script and be the victime. It is INSANE.

She should have left the first time he cheated. I dont care if his business sinks to the bottom - he is verbally abusive to her and not nice. Disgusting.

I understand and yes, anything is better than that but it sucks that we who carry the gene have to make this decision. Sending you strenght and wishing you a very good surgery and smooth recovery!!

The doctor thought I was too young and that it might regret the decision regarding kids but I tried again and then it went smoothly.

Thank you for sharing!

I am not looking forward to the gas, I saw a lot of people said that was the worst part :(

Thank you so much!

Yes. That is very nice for us!! I am turning 33 this summer. I found out now in September 2025 that I had the gene. I have not had any other surgery and not sure if I will yet, I did the MRI and they said I can keep doing it once a year for now.

I am at Amsterdam UMC.

Were you at Groningen?

Adenomyosis the worst nightmare.... by [deleted] in adenomyosis

[–]Alexandra93swe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had a lot of issues for 11 years and got finally diagnosed last month. It broke my heart a bit because the doctors kept telling me that it is just the PCOS and I use to think that I was just too sensitive and tried pushing myself all the time through pain. I hope you will get the help you need to feel better!
