Hi Ladies,
Many grandmothers here are known as a Mimi, but my name is also MiMi. I'm not sure where most of you must live, but the accent is as different as mine. Yes, I'm a grandmother, and I find that most of you are young mothers. :-)
The thing is this: I searched Pea size knot on my cervix. Then Google brought right here, where you girly girls are all chatting of the same, or similar issue.
I don't care what age good advice comes from, I was worried, a little. It happens, I too was "washing, " when I found the knot. Considering the possibilities, I was not about to put it off. I called the clinic the next day, today. My appointment will be on Thursday.
Funny things is, now I expect I know most of what she will likely say: How did you find it :-/ and, or followed by - I can't find anything, but it was likely only a cyst.
The point is, yes, most ladies do wash inside. Some without soap as directed, others just haven't heard- soap can ruin our natural occurring protective fluids. Still, I will continue to wash, and to take stock of my physical being. Meaning, we should be aware if there's a growth today, that wasn't there before. When we do notice a change, we should go to the hassle of calling for the appointment so the Dr can check and be certain it's nothing. Earlier is better.
I also want to say thanks for the light humor and the goodness of your heart that led of you to post helpful content on this page. It goes back to 2011. Even now, the information is a great bit of advice and support.
Yes ma'am, even at 62 women want and need to know... everything. ha. That's what makes us women. :-)
So, thanks ya'll, Now, I too will be a whole lot less nervous- wondering what might be.
Actually, I'm thanking God these bumps will clear away yukky things that aren't needed. Amen.
