I was 18, on the pill, assaulted, and was that statistical failure. I miscarried (and was in denial). Ended up with an infection (dont know if that caused the miscarriage, or if it came from my body not clearing out all of the tissue). Wreaked havoc in my uterus and one fallopian tube. Found out 7 years later that, even with all available medical marvels, itd take a miracle for me to get pregnant, and if it did happen, it would be extremely painful and very dangerous for me and the fetus. My bf had a vasectomy long ago. I have had 4 IUDs in a row, and still randomly test if I have any weird symptoms just to be sure. Finally, after realizing that my uterus has been causing me lots of hell for years and its worsening, we are talking about a hysterectomy. I am 34. (I have a lot of medical issues that I thought were also to blame for this hell. But realizing you have passed out from pain from pms cramps (not my IBS like I thought) more times than you can count is eye opening.
