Background
I recently had a full hysterectomy for stage 4 Endometriosis and although the choice i made was the right choice, after years of trying, i remain childless . My experience was made extremely traumatic by the fact that the ward i was staying on was a mixed women's surgical ward/antenatal ward. I think this is an issue in clinics as well. We often have to share the waiting room with mums and dads to be. I think there needs to be change and funding for separation of Gynaecology clinics from Maternity services.
