And then I went to a doctor that said, well, we'll just push you under anesthesia or a light, twilight, whatever.

And we'll just rip it out.

Don't do that.

Yeah, I saw a video and I was like, I'm not doing that.

That's insane.

It looks like they're breaking your arm.

So the fact that I got on hormones and three weeks later, I already was able to move up without pain is wild.

Yeah, so there's a freezing, frozen, thawing stage is what I've learned about it.

Yeah, some women up to three years if they just don't see anything change with it.

So in my head, I was like, oh my God, I can't do three years of this.

It's already been nine months.

Don't make yourself suffer unnecessarily.

Oh, hot flashes, of course.

That's just like something that all women I think go through.

But that was the only thing that was ever like really pinpointed.

It was like menopause, hot flashes.

But that's the only symptom anybody would ever talk about.

So growing up, I just thought that you just get hot flashes.

And I always thought, well, I'm always very chilly, so maybe I'll enjoy that.

I don't enjoy it.
