I have always had a difficult relationship with my uterus, let’s just say we haven’t always been on the best of terms and ever since about 13 years onward I have decided that her one and only goal was to inflict pain and general annoyance, once a month, just to make sure I knew she was there. In the early years it was just your run of the mill achy period and general PMS side effects, that while annoying, over the years I had learned to live with and handle as par for the course.
