I agree that surgery itself is so much better now. My husband is a med-mal defense lawyer, mostly dealing with hospital infection cases. Unfortunately, these days, the infections you get in hospitals can be, and more often than you would expect are, extremely deadly. So that is more where I'm coming from.

I know there are a lot of people out there who have horrible experiences with hormones; that aside I totally applaude your acceptance of your body as it is. I like to think I would be that brave, but I honestly don't know if I could.
