I am 38 (will be 39 in oct) I have two kids 7 and 9. No iud and no
tubes tied. My family does have a STRONG history of vericose veins in
the legs, which is funny I do not. Yep, got them in my uterus. Who
would think of such a thing. I actually had never heard of it till
after my lap last May. What are you doctors saying? Ada
