Some advise if you are considering getting your tubes tied... if you have heavy periods do yourself…

🙌🙌🙌

i would get headaches, the heavy bleeding oh and the hormones it was bad

girl... I was in so much pain I was throwing up by day 3... bled for 7 days to the point on being anemic from blood loss... headache, mood swings, bloating (which turned out to be swelling from my tubes ballooning from being backed up)

@chela915 I have had to stop my periods completely.. going to try just birth control pills first (thought I wouldn't have to deal with that anymore) or a partial hysterectomy hysterectomy

yikes and I'm considering but really scared of how the process would go. do they put u to sleep or anything or does it hurt getting the procedure?

oh wow i had mine tied for 9 years last year i decided to untied them so worth it @karnamarie

they did mine during my c sections but yes it is a procedure where they will numb you up and you will have a little down time and be sore for a little while. I'm telling you though if you usually have heavy periods don't do it.... the bleeding and pain is worse then labor. @motherof6joys

@chela915 I might just do that... or the partial hysterectomy... I am done having kids but this crapped is for the birds

I usually have light periods and they usually last 3-4 days. not much of cramping at all but I'm having him vaginally which is why I'm scared. this will be my 6th child and I absolutely don't want any more!!

@karnamarie, almost all the women in my family have had either a partial or a full hysterectomy and they said it is much better than getting your tubes tied my aunt had her tubes tied and then two years later had to get a full hysterectomy because she developed endemetrosis from the back up of blood flow...

@motherof6joys then it might be for you! Just not for me lol I cant be down and out every month.

@jacksonsmama15 I have a feeling that is where I'm heading

how long ago did you get done? @karnamarie

5 months ago

@jacksonsmama15

@jacksonsmama15 Went to the doctor because of it and that's basically what he said was the only thing I can do is to just stop the periods all together so either permanent birth control such as an iud or pills an not take the placebos that week of the period or they can go in and cauterize the uterus or a partial hysterectomy

@karnamarie, if you are having problems it'd probably be best to fix things before it gets too bad.

@jacksonsmama15 exactly which is why we are going to do the least abrasive route first since I just had a surgery not long ago

@karnamarie, dang well I hope you feel better soon.
