Keona’s Story

March 31,2021

At 27 years old, I’m a mother of three who experienced a year of amenorrhea followed by a year of continuous bleeding. This culminated in four blood transfusions and countless doctor’s appointments. Ultimately, a massive uterine fibroid necessitated a hysterectomy. While I’m no longer experiencing bleeding, I deeply yearn for another child. I would greatly benefit from connecting with other women in their 20s who have undergone hysterectomies. I long to relate to their experiences of healing and moving forward after the loss of their uterus.
