I miss all the stuff I missed and that includes bleeding, cramps, pelvic exams, fibroids

Anyone with fibroid envy is a POS. Fact.

You cannot miss something you never had. You can wish you'd had it, but you can't miss it.

Among every woman I know who no longer has her period, not a single one "miss" it. "So glad I don't have to deal with that anymore!" is a common refrain. Hot flashes, etc. are no fun though.

Are these sick men envious of hot flashes too?

You can still get hot flash when you're on your period. I use to get them regularly when I had mine and I was in my early to mid-20s back then (I was a bit more stressed and wasn't taking proper care of my body). It was horrible. These days I try to take better care of my body to avoid that and my periods have been a lot painless and I haven't had a single hot flash since then.

I hope they cry every day of their lives for as long as they live.
