My name is Melinda, I am 27 years old. I have been fighting with endometriosis for over 2 years now. I have three laproscopy's and a partial hysterectomy. Tomorrow at 12 noon I will be having my ovaries removed. I am not so scared about the surgery it's self, as I am about the after care issues. I know that I will be going through menopause, and that is what scares me more than anything!

Like I have already mentioned, I am only 27 years old. I have a wonderful family with 3 little girls and a loving husband.
