Three Losses, Endometriosis, and Choosing a Hysterectomy at 28
About this episode
Yari shares her experiences with loss, medical challenges, and community support after undergoing a hysterectomy at a young age.
TW: pregnancy loss, infant loss, medical trauma and dismissal, hysterectomy, immigration enforcement and community fear. Yari became a mom at 19 and spent the next decade being told her pain was normal, her odds were good, and the procedure would hold. It didn't. In this conversation she walks through three losses, the surgery she had to fight her own doctor to get at 28, and what she's doing right now for the elders on her block in Chicago.
