Doubting on my 8th day post op...help!

Today is my second day here! I started with the very embarrassing question yesterday. I was such in at a lost and had no ona to talk to. But to my surprise people did not ridicule my experience. I actually received helpful and encouraging replies.

So here I go again, is it normal to doubt if you made the right decision? Everything was explained to me. Per op I was convinced, no better alternative than hysterectomy with my situation. It was a decision my husband and I made, we wanted to prevent cancer. We valued my life more than the very low even impossible Risk of having kids.

This was the biopsy diagnosis on my medical certificate:
Polypoid Complex Hyperplasia with Focal Atypia and Focal Adenomyomatous component, anterior endometrium, endometrial polyps disordered proliferative phase to simple hyperplasia of the endometriosis DM type 2.

Post op my the Histopathological results of the biopsy done during my d&c was Atypical Polypoid Adenomyoma.

I know our decision is irreversible, no use to over think things anymore. But does anybody understand why I am feeling this way? Can anybody confirm if we did the right decision. Is it even right to ask. Today is my 8th day post op. this community s really helping me a lot

Re: Doubting on my 8th day post op...help!

I am so sorry you are going through this. My heart feels for you. I had mine on the 8th of June. Never had kids. I did want to, but it just wasn't in the cards. After i had my hysterectomy I mourned for the loss of my female parts and it hit me probably about a week after. I think it is normal to feel that way. I've talked to a lot of women who felt that way also. The best way I am getting past it is on this site. I've learned that it's okay to be sad, to embrace and acknowledge it. Honoring your body right now can be very humbling. It's comforting to know you are not alone. We are in the same place you are. Much peace and continued wellness to you.

Thanks!

Im quite confused and have been silent about my doubts

I dont want to exasperate my hubby about this and add to his stress in taking care of me. I dont want to open up to my doctor. she might misinterpret it.

Im glad that I can pour out my heart and not be ridiculed, looked down on, or judged.

This site is helping me cope and just recover emotionally and deal with all my struggles.

Thanks so much!

im glad I joined Hystersisters
