I just turned 28 on Sept 13 and I already have my kids Im done in that
department. My pain is getting so intense I honestly would rather have
10csections instead of this pain. The DR I have like I said is against
removing anything at this age. I mean what age is good? I am just
curious on my options I guess. I know that I dont want to end up having
7surgies.
