Sadly, I have been negatively impacted by the lack of funding for women’s health research. I developed adenomyosis after my 2nd child and no doctor could help me. It made my life unbearable at 33 with 2 young children that needed me. I was given a choice of birth control or a hysterectomy. After trying so many types of birth control, some of which exasperated my symptoms to horrific levels, I decided on a hysterectomy at 35. What a decision to make to be able to live a happy healthy life again.😒 I don’t regret it, but I wish there were more options. My hope is in the future other women won’t have such limited options.

Thank you for sharing your story. It’s heartbreaking that so many women face such limited options due to the lack of investment in women’s health. Your experience highlights why innovation and funding in this space are so critical. I hope we can drive change so that future generations have better choices. Sending you strength and appreciation for raising awareness. ❤️
