The woman who came to my defense is now dead. Hysterectomy took her life. She suffered with the aftermath of hysterectomy from 2003 until January 2011. Her story is posted on my web site in her own words. She was lied to by her doctor as so many women are about needing surgery and then lied to about what was amputated. She suffered terribly. She lost everything after being hysterectomized and then she lost her life and all due to a surgery she did not need in the first place.

From personal experience and from talking with hundreds of women who have been hysterectomized and castrated; I have learned that this surgery almost always causes more problems than it solves. And..... there is no going back. Once your organs have been amputated; they're gone for good. The consequences are many; including heart disease, bone loss, brain diseases, various types of cancer, extreme depression, chronic fatigue, memory loss, vision loss, bladder prolapse, bowel obstruction, sexual dysfunction, etc., etc. The list is endless......

Hysterectomy is rarely ever necessary and is rarely performed for life-saving reasons. Hysterectomy is big business. Read the article posted on my site 'Sure Doctor: You Can Have My Uterus'. Gynecologists are surgeons. They can only make a living by delivering babies and by amputating women's sex organs. In my opinion, any surgery that is irreversible is a fundamental violation of human rights; especially when most women do not give 'informed consent' or any consent at all. Any kind of mutilation is barbaric. Hysterectomy and castration is mutilation and is barbaric. America leads the world in the number of hysterectomies performed. Greed is the reason for most hysterectomies; greed on the part of the gynecologists and the drug companies.

To the last poster..... I think you have made a very wise decision to hold onto your organs and remain an 'intact woman'. Since my hysterectomy, I feel like stepping out in front of a train every day and many women do become suicidally depressed (as many as 73%) after hysterectomy and castration. There is no 'fix' for this depression. Dr. Stanley West addresses this issue in his book 'Hysterectomy Hoax'. Dr. West warns women to avoid hysterectomy at all cost unless cancer is present for certain. He does not recommend hysterectomy for other reasons. There are so many alternatives to hysterectomy. Dr. Mitchell Levine who spoke at the HERS conference in NY also warns women that hysterectomy should be a last resort and also warns the hysterectomy should not be performed for fibroids. He went as far as to refer to the female sex organs as sacred.

I would give anything if I had never met the gynecologist who stole my healthy organs. That gynecologist crushed every hope and dream I had for my future... crushed every hope and dream into dust. My life is a nightmare and there is no hope that it will get better. Herein lies the real problem with hysterectomy. You can never go back. You can never get your organs back or the life-sustaining hormones and chemicals they produced.
