Sai Davis is a 42-year-old high school biology teacher and mother of two teenagers. For over five years, she experienced increasingly heavy, painful periods that left her anemic and exhausted, often forcing her to miss work. After trying various hormonal treatments and an endometrial ablation with only temporary relief, her gynecologist diagnosed her with multiple large uterine fibroids. The doctor recommended a robotic hysterectomy, explaining it would provide a definitive solution with less pain and a faster recovery than traditional open surgery, crucial for Sai who needed to return to her classroom. The procedure went smoothly; Sai was amazed to have only four small incisions. Her recovery at home was manageable with her family's support, and she was back to light duties within two weeks. Emotionally, Sai felt profound relief after years of pain and fatigue. While she had initial sadness about the finality of the surgery, it was overshadowed by the joy of regaining her energy and freedom from constant pain, allowing her to be fully present for her family and students again.
