Let’s Talk About Partial Hysterectomy

From my article about Tubal Ligation, a very nice lady commented her views about it (it’s Aria!). From here comment, I can sense some discomfort on her part. I researched more and asked around about their Tubal Ligation experiences. I am still gathering information, maybe I will post a first hand information by Friday. I was curious about Partial Hysterectomy (again thanks to Aria). And being a curious cat, I cannot let this one pass. So indulge with me as again I flood your MWF nights with endless medical terms and illustrations.

Let us first define HYSTERECTOMY. It is surgical operation where in a Gynecologist removes the uterus and the cervix. (ouch!) Removal of the uterus can mean only one thing, no more childbirth so this can be considered as a permanent birth control. My research brought me to believe that Hysterectomy is not mainly done to gain permanent birth control. In most cases it is done to prevent cancer cell build ups. In most cases it is done because something came up (like placenta praevia) or for transmen (sex transition to become a man) as part of their sexual transformation.

How about Partial Hysterectomy? Literally, partial means not whole or just a part, so it follows that when you speak of Partial Hysterectomy it means partial removal of the uterus.

I have to stop right now because I am cringing… sorry guys. I can’t be a doctor! waaah!!!

If you have more information about Hysterectomy or Partial Hysterectomy, feel free to comment on the ~~grossest~~ technical (medical) way. On Wednesday, let’s take a look on another permanent birth control, and this time it’s for the boys! yay!

Readers From The United States (IMRC Policy)

From my previous post, where I said I EARNED $50 from IMRC, I forgot to mention that the site is quite strict when it comes to International Policy. Earlier this year, the membership was open to all countries, a week or so after that, some Asian countries were banned. Here is a detailed explanation as to why: from IMRC FAQ page

We currently accept new users from all countries except the following:

India, Malaysia, Nigeria, Philippines, Singapore

Unfortunately we’ve experienced a tremendous amount of fraudulent and inappropriate use of the IM Report Card website from users in these countries, and until we figure out an efficient way to combat this we can’t accept users from these countries.

If you are in one of these countries and want to use IM Report Card responsibly, please accept our sincerest apologies. We know it doesn’t seem “fair”.

Until we figure out a way to efficiently deal with this problem, you’re free to use the site as a resource – you just can’t post comments or earn credits.

Users in certain other locations will be asked to provide additional information upon signing up, and based on this information the user will be approved or denied.

Please note: Do NOT attempt to use proxy servers or other methods to hide your IP address and/or location in an attempt to circumvent this policy. If you do, we WILL catch you, and you will be permanently banned from accessing the site.

Around August, the ban was lifted in the Philippines, for a time they allowed new users from our country granted you provide an explanation on what you know about Internet Marketing. I cannot say I am lucky that I was accepted, I knew a lot about Internet Marketing and I know my grammar and English is not excellent but it’s OK.

Now, they updated their International Policy and this is what they have to say (from IMRC blog)

Effective immediately we are no longer accepting new users from the Philippines, Malaysia or Singapore. We are just seeing too much fraud and inappropriate use of the site coming from these countries. For all the details on our updated policy on international users, please see this Frequently Asked Question on the FAQs page.

Active existing users from these countries are NOT affected by this policy change.

We are however canceling existing user accounts from these countries who signed up and have no activity and no credits owed.

So to all those who signed up under me.. this is the reason why..

My offer for those who will sign up under me still stands.. and this specially applies to my READERS FROM THE UNITED STATES(whatever race is your origin as long you are in the US). Sign up under me and gain more than the usual cash out of $20.

If you sign up under me, I am giving a 50% cash out incentive on your first cash out. Succeeding cash outs will give you another 30% from me.

How Was Tubal Ligation For You?

Just so you know guys, I am delivering Sati by normal childbirth. I talked about EPIDURAL because I am planning to undergo Tubal Ligation. Now a comment from one of my blogging friend (Aria of Aria’z Ink) made me think twice. She mentioned another permanent birth control method and I think I will research more about it and will post about it next week.

Meanwhile I am on looking for fellow Mommies who already had tubal ligation before. how does it feel? I really want to know first hand experiences. If you have an experience with tubal ligation and is not occupied with chores and screaming, please do answer some of inquiries below, you can make a blog post about it (with a link here and I will put it on a list) so we can make a good reference material for Mommies who are considering Tubal Ligation too.

Why did you decide to undergo Tubal Ligation?

What is it that finalized your decision?

How did the operation went? Did you have Tubal Ligation after delivery or you just had it?

How was it after the anesthesia wears down? How about days after?

How was it 6 months after? Did you feel any changes in your body? How about your sexual desire?

How was it years after?

Did you feel any regret after all these years? Do you think it was worth it? If given a chance will you undergo Tubal Ligation Reversal?

Will you recommended it to other Moms? If not do you have any suggestion on birth control?

I hope at lest two or three moms out there would answer my inquiry.. and I hope Aria too 🙂
