I feel for you I remember my pain all too well. I had a myomectomy done, when I was 29-30 years old & married. The GYN urged me to get pregnant within the year, because my misery would begin again very soon. I did as I was told, but, he sure was right.

Within a couple of years, sex was quickly becoming way too painful for me again, but I did it to have our second child. As I delivered my second girl, via c-section (due to the strength of my uterus completely weakened by the myomectomy), I got my tubes severed and tied.

My painful intercourse and intense LOOOONNNNGGG periods continued for several more years, and I was finally able to get a full hysterectomy. That is what I needed and thankfully I finally got it done. I don't regret that decision I made one teensy bit, really. I've paid my menstrual dues & then some! LOL Seriously, it was ridiculous.

I did find a support group online that deals specifically with this issue, and I do highly recommend you checking them out sometime. Hysterectomy - HysterSisters They are very supportive, understanding and knowledgeable in this arena.

Gentle hugs and very best wishes sent your way.
