Conversations with Friends: A Novel

I’m glad you’re feeling calmer! No stress about pelvic floor therapy before surgery, but if it’s easy to get an appointment just to establish care, that’s great. I totally hear you about discussion of your genitals being taboo in your family, even in a medical context. That’s such a bummer, but don’t be afraid to take initiative to educate yourself through affirming sources.
