A member asked:
Can someone at the age of 18 get a hysterectomy? my periods are awful, and i want kids, but would be open to adopting if it means no more suffering...

Yes, but....: There are so many ways to help you feel better that do not require removing your uterus. Only on very rare occasions does the uterus need to be removed to control symptoms. You need to see a doctor and figure out why you are having such pain and then treat the cause.
