Erin I'm so happy you've opened up with everyone about this. You don't understand how many people here are sick (including me) and struggling everyday and it's nice that you've spoken up about your journey.

[@hollysmith7117]

damarius ingram good luck on your journey ❤️

[@anjap1804]

damarius ingram I wish you, Erin and everybody else all the strength, love and support you need❤ 🤞🏼

[@damariusingram6205]

Holly smith thank you ❤

[@damariusingram6205]

always anja 💕

[@mollie.28.15]

damarius ingram I'm sick too, just not with fibroids. I have multiple tumours on my brain and a big one on my lung, so big it can't be removed. Luckily they're benign. It's a rare form called something I can't even spell. Because it's not cancer people don't understand and think I'm fine and it sucks. I think Erin posting this is amazing because it tells people that just because it's not cancer it doesn't mean it's fine. It tells people that you should go get these check ups because you could find something early and it can be treated. My life seems a bit like Erin's was, I can't remember a time without pain.

[@sarahthorn6650]

Thank you for not putting this on KZbin Red 👏👏👏👏

[@hannahmoreno2930]

yes that is what I was saying

[@abbierachel8598]

[@zuzuspetals9281]

Absolutely. I see a GoFundMe account at the end of this. Or at least a doctor directory and support groups set up. Just wait to see.

[@gamefaceartistry4466]

It broke my heart when you said you were broken :( You aren't broken you are beautiful

[@kpredd13]

literally laying on the couch recovering from a fibroid surgery right now. Im 24 and it was larger than a grapefruit

[@kpredd13]

please please tell me your doctors didnt tell you you needed to remove your uterus. Im assuming you are using that because he said it but then gave you the options for a treatment and not a cure. Treating them would be taking them out, curing them would be taking out the uterus.

[@clevverstyle]

Kirsten! Praying that you get well soon! Mine were softball sized, so I can't imagine the pain you must have been in. I did find an amazing treatment and I'm excited to share it with women because it was quite miraculous for me.

[@bridgettereyes7554]

Kirsten Reddoch my biggest fibroid that they removed was that big as well. The smallest was the size of a mustard seed. I was given an other option of Uterine fibroid embolization. The only reason I didn't opt for that procedure was because at the time they're were no studies to see how it would effect the process of getting pregnant and since I didn't have kids my OBGYN suggested not to have it done. This was back in 2011. I don't know if things have changed.

[@bridgettereyes7554]

Kirsten Reddoch also I pray that you have a speedy recovery.

[@mansham8652]

Kirsten Reddoch hope u recover soon

[@savannahgautier2382]

I'm 21 years old and was just recently diagnosed with cervical cancer, pelvic inflammatory disease, and polycystic ovarian disease. I just had to surgery to move my ovaries out of my pelvis, so they aren't damaged by radiation. I will have to undergo radiation and chemotherapy 5 days a week for 5 weeks. I will never be able to carry my own child, due to the amount of scar tissue that will be caused from treatment. I'm sending positive vibes your way, Erin! Not having control over your body is one of the worst things a woman can ever go through.

[@MelSolayao]

5 minutes in on this and I made an appointment for my annual with my OBGYN. It's been two years since my last check up. You're so strong, Erin 💜

[@lautonlanky1463]

[@kenziegumby]

This comment section is so inspiring, everyone is telling their own story and how to get through it. It's amazing how many people have this problem, I'm 13 so I didn't even know about this and I think this show will prepare me for the future if I get this or even if one of my friends gets it I'll have a better understanding of what it is. So thank you, for this video so many people are going to learn, and maybe u could inspire some people to go to a doctor and get checked out.

[@ErinRobinson]

You are very wise for 13! I want to be more like you when I grow up.

[@kenziegumby]

Erin Robinson thank you so much! You are wise and wonderful You can do this!

[@NoThankUBeQuiet]

Mckenzie Gumbleton that's great. But it's not just fibroids. So many other women's health issues that never get talked about. Just know they are normal and so many women have had them

[@Fatima-tr6jm]

I am so glad clevver is making us aware of this so that people are more aware about it I feel really bad for erin I can't believe that this is happening to her

[@clevverstyle]

Thanks + anonymous person - be sure to make regular doctor appointments and stay on top of your health!

[@paulinerivera]

Erin, I cannot stress enough how you have an incredibly huge amount of strength for sharing your journey. I've had a chronic illness that has been with me since I was born but no one aside from my family is aware of it. I've been on medication for years now and have had 3 month lab tests and check ups for as long as I can remember. It's also a common "invisible" and incurable illness & my doctor has asked me several times to share my story to bring awareness to it, but I just couldn't. Call me selfish, but I feel like if people find out it will be all too real and not just my little secret. My friends don't even know about it, I couldn't bring myself to tell them. Meanwhile, you shared yours with 2 million people. Stay strong, Erin. All 2.2 million of us got your back.

[@shiningmoa4604]

Pau Rivera ❤

[@jillsarah7356]

You may be surprised how much support you get if you choose to share your story! I support you!!

[@hello.m3299]

Pau Rivera stay strong 💕.

[@theyadmirebarbie]

Sickle cell disease is also a chronic illness i'll have forever and people think it's fake or invisible. It could also be fatal people who can't see something are ignorant and treat you completely different if you can't see it. Doesn't mean it isn't real or painful stay strong Erin 💝!

[@emilydiytried3146]

Pau Rivera it kinda sounds like Ehlers-Danlos syndrome

[@rachelblais741]

Wow. I'm sobbing watching this. I have polycystic ovarian syndrome which, like your fibroids is such a secretive topic. I was told that I either have to live with the pain or face possibly not having children either. I've chosen to live with it because I do hope to have kids some day. But I've been told if I did get pregnant I'd be high risk. I appreciate this so much. I feel for you so so much.

[@Katie-fp9ol]

Rachel Blais i also have PCOS, I feel your pain girl

[@clevverstyle]

I feel for you! The more we can talk about these things with each other the more we can help each other through it. I appreciate you.

[@olgacortes2062]

I also have PCOS I know the pain and everything. I have had an amazing doctor that put me in a metabolic treatment for a year. Was a long journey and im only 22. But i think that you can make it work, try a new doctor, watch your diet and keep in mind that we are not broken.

[@jordanpaige4432]

Rachel Blais PCOS runs in my family and I was diagnosed at 11. Now that it's years later, I can see how much it has truly affected my family. Its good to always remember that it's not impossible to get pregnant with PCOS. There may be risk but it's definitely worth it to try. My aunt, who has PCOS, struggled for close to 20 years before she decided to get fertility help. Before she got help, she did have a few miscarriages, but now she has 3 daughters.

[@sparklerainbowsun]

I have PCOS too and never had my own children, but God is good and gave me a husband who had kids. After their mom passed, I got to be a mom for them and I'm so blessed. I now have two grandchildren! You are never broken, just always in a state of becoming a more polished, beautiful you.

[@heyooo6983]

I've loved Erin from the beginning, I've always admired how Awesome she is and and tough, I've always Admired how she always stays strong, I've always admired how beautiful and confident she is. She's a real inspiration to everybody. She's learned to ignore the haters and express who she is. I admire that.

[@Lanie11511]

Love that Clevver is allowing Erin to share this very important and relatable subject to many of us who deal with similar issues. So sorry you're having to go through all of this :( but by being raw and candid you are going to help so many others.

[@SarahStars1]

This couldn't have been an easy choice to film and put up, but I would have never heard of this until you shed light on it. You are a real trooper for putting on such a happy face through it all.

[@pinkgamer2459]

Erin you are slaying life and encouraging so many people.

[@soxynurse]

I'm going through this right now. A lot of people don't get it and don't think its a big deal to be facing a hysterectomy at 29. Thank you for being so open and honest.

[@clevverstyle]

+Ashley Sawchuk Thank you for sharing your story. Sending you love.

[@pokipoki493]

@Ashley S. How are you doing now??

[@talaahmad3676]

My 23 year old cousin went through the same thing. She She ended up having to remover her uterus and ovaries because it all formed cancer in that area. Since she got everything removed her chances of ever having kids is gone forever. Now she is going through chemotherapy. 💔💔 Stay strong Erin 💜 You are really brave

[@talaahmad3676]

Earth2Sam Corker Thank you so much ❤️❤️

[@talaahmad3676]

TheICEgirl6100 This was our first option but the problem was her whole eggs and ovaries and uterus had cancer cells. So even if we were able to freeze them, it wouldn't change anything.

[@meganwilfong2656]

Watching this was like hearing my story told by someone else. I am close to the same age as Erin. I was diagnosed with fibroids in 2015 and underwent 3 myomectomies last year which gave me some pain relief, but may not help my ability to have children. So reassuring to know there are others who understand. I've always said that I am broken as well. It's a very lonely thing to deal with. Erin, thank you for sharing.

[@ErinRobinson]

Thank you for commenting, Megan. So happy to meet a fellow fighter. I am right here with you.

[@laurenshymanski237]

Keep fighting, all of you guys! I might have GAD, or Generalized Anxiety Disorder, I tremble constantly, repeat thought, intense anxiety and more, and I turned 14 just today! Love each and every one of you! No matter what, you're perfect!😘😘😘😘😘

[@devinmarie36]

I have a similar thing going on with myself. I have cyst on my uterus but the only time I feel horrible pain is during my period because of the bloating that comes with it. The cysts put more pressure that what I had before and it's feels like I can't breath sometimes. I think I can say for most of us here that watch, take the time you need. Become better for yourself and your family. We love you.

My sister has fibroids and so do i. Ive seen and felt this first hand, it sucks ass.....and to see Erin going through this breaks my heart. And i love the fact you are telling people, because this is a serious thing. Im so sorry that you have to go through this.

[@Magdahlana]

I have watched all the women on my mother's side go through this. My Grandma, aunt, and my mom have all had fibroids. I have such a high chance of getting them, as do both of my sisters. I was blessed with a beautiful daughter 3 years ago, and am so grateful that I have had that chance, knowing so many women don't. Even my own family members. Every day I pray that I will catch mine early, hope that my daughter won't get them. I want you to know that at the age of 25, I understand. that you are not alone. That no matter what happens, you will still have a wonderful life. And that it is still possible to have children after they are removed. Do not wait. Get out of pain, and enjoy the life you have. we are all here for you.

[@phatgoddess21]

I have fibroids had to get one that was huge removed cause I was in pain and had lots of heavy periods. To a point where I could not function properly . So had it removed 2011 and went on to have a baby boy 2014. So there is hope after surgery but everyone is different. hope u get through this hun. Best o luck in ur journey.

[@PeachyMangoPie]

[@mgkcheer5678]

This video really makes me have hope, I have just been diagnosed with endometriosis and I have been feeling pain very similar to what you are feeling. I know how it feels to feel like you are alone and no one understands what you are going through. I myself have just turned 16 and it is just a shock to me that I have been diagnosed with this. Just knowing that someone else that I have been watching for a while is going through the same struggle as I am. Thank you so very much for opening up about this because it has now inspired me to open up about my condition to :)

[@ErinRobinson]

I also had endometriosis, and we talk about it during the show. You're not alone and I have felt your pain. Stay strong and make sure to take good care of yourself!

[@mgkcheer5678]

Erin Robinson Thank you so much! It means a lot to me:)

[@jennamasa8190]

Gill C my mom and my aunt both had endometriosis so now I have a high risk for it I'm only 16 though but we are trying to get me on birth control to try and prevent me from getting it because it was so bad for my mom she couldn't have kids (my mom had to have it removed to stop the endometriosis because it was so bad)

[@zuzuspetals9281]

Emma I'm so sorry about your losing your baby last night. It must have been very difficult for you, and I appreciate you sharing that with everyone here. I really hope you can learn from Erin's experience so you get helpful treatment and will eventually have a successful pregnancy.

[@annaprovoe8002]

I might have endometriosis. The good news is that DOT labs just came out with a blood test to diagnose it without major surgery.

[@ezekielamaterasu3462]

My mother suffered for years thinking it was normal 'women problems'. Now, both my nieces have them and gotten treatment. Thank you for being brave and talking about a subject that isn't discussed. Lots of love xo

[@averynoelle7154]

My mom used to have this condition and she had to get two separate surgeries. I couldn't bare watching her go though the pain. She was always in bed trying to sleep off her pain. But she decided to get the surgery to remove everything. After all the recover time, she was so much more present as a mother and definitely happy. I can't thank you enough Erin for telling people about this and spreading the love around.

[@autumndoll8361]

I can't possibly fathom what she's going through, but I can send what love and support that she needs. Eric has always been such a kind soul and doesn't deserve this, no one does. Erin, you are not broken, you are just made the way you are, we love you.

[@ericawiley4524]

Thank you so much for sharing this Erin! So many women live in pain and are just led to believe it's normal. Women's issues aren't properly talked about, and not enough focus is put on those yearly exams. I myself have been dealing with endometriosis for several years. A disease that 1 in 10 women will be affected by, yet no one talks about it. If only it weren't so "taboo" to discuss these issues. I am so glad you are making content to open up the conversation. I hope you are able to have a successful surgery and that your pain will be decreased. Best wishes to you!!

[@clevverstyle]

+Erica Wiley Thank you for the support! That's exactly why we made this series - to allow a platform for women to discuss REAL problems. Sending you so much love!

[@spacetasticgames]

Hi Erica! You're not alone, another endometriosis patient here. I'm trying to make our illness more visible, so if you have time for a 18 min video, go see my storytime vlog about endometriosis on my channel. It's not perfect video about the subject and it's only covering my view very briefly, but I hope it would get someone to go find help, when it's still early. +Clevver Style thanks for opening this discussion with your series, these things really matter and need to get heard of.

[@slt00005]

Super job ladies!!! I’m another endo & fibroid sister encouraging all women to be their own best advocate. Love that the more we share the more we know & aren’t alone. Sending all my love & strength.❤️

[@carrie2310]

As a medical professional, I think it's great that Erin is showing us her journey with this medical condition that isn't well known. I just have to say though, if anyone out there is having unusual symptoms/pain, please do NOT wait to get it checked out!! I understand some people may think it will pass, or they may be scared to find out, but honestly you really shouldn't wait. A few months or even a year can be the difference between life and death in worst case scenarios (ex. cancer). I hope this video inspires some people to take charge of their health. Erin, you're really brave to share this with the world and I hope everything works out for you in the end! All the best!

[@clevverstyle]

+ Carrie E So glad you shared your thoughts. This is why we made this series, DON'T WAIT. Schedule regular check-ups and be sure to take your health into your own hands!

[@freyawomack2049]

It's so lovely to see someone bring topics like this to light x I never knew about fibroids, I think it's important to learn about these thinks so we can spread awareness and help those who need support x Thanks Erin for sharing your story xxx

Thank you for sharing your story with us.

[@avrilw.claassen7084]

Just so you know, with God in your life and the support system you currently have in your family, friends, the team at clevver and all the viewers, are all you need to get through this. Stay strong and converse with God. Every trial and tribulation we go through in life is not God's way of testing our threshhold for sorrow or pain. He knows how strong we are and we as clevver subscribers have seen an Erin that has the best accent, laugh and a really strong personality. Keep your head up and fits ready to fight. Like you said, don't let the pain win. We all are praying for you and Matt

[@jessycacyr1537]

My mom and sister both have fibroids. My mom was originally told she would not be able to get pregnant or carry children and ended up having 4 pregnancies, 3 of which ended up having no issues and resulted in me and my sisters. My older sister who has dealt with the same issues had the same intense pain and bleeding that you had. She suffered for years before she finally decided to go for surgery when she had planned to try having a baby. She went for several surgeries to remove as many cysts as possible. After the surgeries, she ended up getting pregnant and carried my nephew full term and he is now 3 months old. She had some complications throughout and he was smaller than a normal baby due to the cysts growing along with him. I wanted to post this just to say that there is hope and to keep your head up through it all. Your support system is extremely important in all this. Good luck!

[@Sarahhiltonwatts]

This is so heartbreaking but so important to talk about, thanks Erin for educating me (I'm only 17) about something I had no idea about previously. Thank you for being so brave💜

[@cassiesofia7386]

Erin's such a happy person, its unbelievable to know she was going through all of this behind the scenes! Breaks my heart! I want nothing but health and happiness for her I love her so much ♥️

[@shefalishenai148]

You are one of the strongest woman ever. Everything is going to be fine 😃

[@crazyoldladies9586]

A few years ago I had a complete hysterectomy. I had PCOS and stage 4 endometriosis. I also had a cyst the size of a cantaloupe sitting at the top of my uterus. I understand the debilitating pain you are talking about in this video. My issues were too far advanced for any other treatment. I know how it feels to be in a group of people and feel like I am the only person in the world that is going thru what I was going thru. I understand feeling broken and it still hits me sometimes out of the blue. What I can tell you is that after my surgery physically I felt better than I had in a very long time. Am I different? Absolutely. Do I mourn what could have been? Yes. I would love to be able to tell you that it will be easy. There will be struggles. Do I regret the surgery? No. My life is so much better now. I am not eating pain pills out of both hands. I don't have to plan everything based on where the restrooms are. I can leave home any day of the month. I can even leave my purse at home if I want. I did not realize how much of my life was spent trying to cope with the pain and the bleeding and the general sense of anxiety because of the pain and the bleeding. So head up girl.....you are a strong, smart, beautiful woman with a husband that seems to be incredibly supportive and understanding....and pretty easy on the eyes. ;)

[@clevverstyle]

+Angel B. Thank you for the support. Sending you a lot of support as well - you are NOT broken either! You are wonderful and incredible as well!

[@madelinev1403]

I was recently diagnosed with PCOS and the pain sucks

[@kfe7258]

I know exactly how she feels, and I think it's amazing that clevver is making this series. I have celiac disease (an auto immune disorder.) I wasn't diagnosed until I was almost 12. So, up until that point I was always sick, and the symptoms only got worse as I grew older. Then a couple months before I was officially diagnosed I could hardly get out of bed, and I still had people in my life who thought I was still doing it all for attention. It took time, but I found amazing doctors who helped change my life forever.

[@daughterofposeidon1304]

I’m glad that you were strong enough too make this series because it really helps when people who have a huge following show what it’s like to have a condition that most people cannot see. In my case I have Crohn’s disease and people constantly don’t know what I’m going through because if you don’t show it physically people tend to think that you’re just fine but in all reality you have to struggle everyday too overcome and control the symptoms and on top of that having to constantly visit doctors when you’re already ill and tired is a struggle thank you so much for putting this out here and facing the world about your condition ❤️

[@brendafranciscamendoza9437]

Erin, I really admire your courage to show this fight you've had and want to share it with the world to help women who may suffer from this disease and have not noticed. Stay Strong!

[@samtamez7267]

You just need to stay strong and be positive. All the women in my family has been diagnose with this and there is a good chance I will too. When my mom found out she had them she cried and broke down in front of me. It is a hard thing to go through, but you will get through it just like my family did. Love you and keep pushing through.

[@clevverstyle]

+ Sam Tamez Thanks for sharing your story - be sure you keep up with regular doctor appointments so you can get diagnosed early.

[@elizabethmurphy8368]

this series is going to be very real and touching to everybody. Even with people not going through fibroids, they can' still relate on some level. The pain you describe sounds like my depression, something you can't escape or overcome without a clear mind set. but everything is easier said then done. I'm truly touched that you brought this side of you to youtube because most of us had no idea. its easy to wear a smile everyday to work, but then when you get home its a dark place again. this video was touching to me, and many other women going through pain of some sort.

[@joaquintiu5633]

i'm shook. you are so inspirational, i'm so glad that you're using your platform to inform this generation. amazing.

[@rachelmunn7690]

This is heartbreaking. I was crying when you doubted if Matt would have married you if he knew you were 'broken.' Just know Erin, you are not alone throughout this. Everyone is here to understand and support you. Love you lots xxx

[@gis3ll3ramir3z99]

i love you erin. watching you everyday the past 2 years, i never knew you had fibroids going on. u are so brave to put yourself out there and talk about this. so much love for you❤❤❤

[@clevverstyle]

Thank you. It's okay. I chose to focus on the positive more than the negative. There were days when the pain kicked my butt, but I didn't want to let the cruddy stuff overshadow the amazing stuff.

[@maritrekkers4392]

Dear Erin, I have been following clevver for a couple of years now and you all are so dear to me, almost like you're family (which is weird because i've seen you guys so many times, but you haven't seen me once, since I live in Europe.) Just know that we are ALL behind you and we will support you whatever choice you'll make or whatever treatment you will go through. YOU are fighting this, but WE are all fighting with you. I pray for you, may you get better very soon and lead a life without all this horrible pain.

[@madelinelucy1304]

I have some much cramps a lot not 24/7 like you. Everytime I drink soda I crawl onto the floor in pain. It's a lot of crying and rough nights. I can't ever explain how much pain I am in during this. I've never felt something more horrible

[@tay2092]

Picture Perfect maybe you have a untreated urinary track infection I know caffeine is a big cause of that you should go to the doctor and tell them what's going on and get tested

[@anotheridiotd7703]

pls go to a doc, n take care of yourself 😘

[@kristinem.9151]

Picture Perfect go to a doctor ♡ maybe it's UTI or hyper acidity?

[@lauragreen7360]

This is so inspirational, I'm only 14 and I'm going through the same thing. Its not common to find it this early but I'm glad that I can follow your story, It's so nice to be able to have someone else out there who understands even though I don't know you. I love you so much Erin stay strong ❤️❤️

[@kendallshay6219]

how did you find out you had it? you're so strong 💙

[@lauragreen7360]

Oh this made me tear up. Erin you are beautiful and wonderful. Thank you for this journey and your consent love and fight. We love you.

[@JosieAreSee]

OMG, this broke my heart. Beautiful Woman, YOU are more than your ability to bear children. The pain that riddles you is so unfair. Thank you for sharing and allowing us to help support you. I'm a praying kinda of girl, so I will pray for peace and strength. xoxo, Josie

[@minun5]

I have a friend who is suffering from this as well, saw her curled up in our office a few times during her period. But to see this vid, the personal view. I cried. I'm glad Clevver put this content in their channel. LIFE

[@briannalanae2722]

i never clicked on a video so fast, Erin is my favorite person that's involved with clevver and i really do look up to her, i hope she does what's best for her health

[@emilysims745]

praying for u

[@rochelleakos]

A very close person to me suffers so greatly from this issue. Her health issues have really altered a lot of aspects of her life. Please continue to make these videos because I feel like it could be invaluable for many women who may suffer from issues related to this. Thank you so much for making this video. Stay strong Erin!!

[@Hannahbanana10209]

This is one of the most valuable things you have produced on this channel. This will help so many women through what could be their longest, most difficult hurdle. I loved seeing these three women discussing this with true sincerity and empathy. Thank you so much for this series

[@clevverstyle]

I'm so happy that you feel that way. It is very different than anything we've ever done, but we're hopeful that we can use it to help people!

[@kellyelsass6022]

Thank you for sharing your story Erin ❤️ it's nice having someone I can look up to and go through my journey with PCOS with guidance and reassurance close by. I hope things are looking up for you.

[@udance4u]

Aw, Erin you are so strong and beautiful! I know you can get through this! We are all rooting for you. You have our support!

[@justinezey]

currently sitting here with my most miserable cramps i've had in about 6 months :-) women are too good for this kinda shit 👿

[@manditaaluv]

justine mckinzey I feel you on that. I have to get the depo because my cramps and bleeding are so bad and I get migraines so I can't take the pill. They've done tests and haven't found anything causing all the pain and bleeding. It's very frustrating.

[@justinezey]

Dat Elf i talked to my doctor about it and all she did was give me birth control, which helped the cramps but made lots of other things worse lmao

[@vanessa-bl1nr]

Dat Elf my mom has endometriosis, it's hard for her sometimes because she's getting old :(

[@YourLuckyThirteen]

I've never gone through something like this, but thank you Erin for sharing. You're helping to raise awareness across women all around the world. Thank you Erin, I hope you will be ok soon ❤️

[@nat2385]

You are so strong Erin, we all love you so much ❤️❤️❤️

[@leahsglamgossip]

Stunning, emotional, amazing! Thinking of you Erin!

[@hannerose7683]

I think one of the best things that can come out of this terrible situation, is that you are able to educate people. So many people are unaware of fibroids, and thanks to this platform you can change that! Keep strong! You're a fighter! ❤️

[@happinessforeverandalways]

I’m actually crying, this is so emotional, it’s so beautifully filmed. Thank you for educating me on this topic; please get well soon Erin.

[@sophiewarner1258]

I love how her husband is so supportive and nice about it. And he's not just like "This is so hard on me". I'm glad he's like "I'm doing my best at helping her because I know she has been in pain" and that he is trying to understand her situation. I want to applaud him for this. He is a good man Erin. I'm sure he is upset but he isn't making it about him self, as far as I can tell. I hope you work it out. P.s. I already loved you on clever but now i love you even more! Feel better soon!!❤️❤️ #healthetaco

[@amberd4352]

Erin thank you for sharing your journey and story with us. I know you are helping so many women.

[@kaitlincooper7497]

I actually cried about this,you seem so happy on the videos and none of us ever knew about what you are going through, I just hope things get better in the future for you hunny x

[@georgiam7723]

I am disabled by chronic pain from Fibromyalgia with involuntary movements, fatigue, insomnia, and a laundry list of problems. For so long I felt I was flawed and so useless, becoming disabled so early in life, just after I moved into my dream career. I finally started talking about it and also seeing a specialized psychiatrist. You are SO brave and I'm so sorry for your pain. Invisible diseases have been looked down on for so long and kept silent. Thank you for using your social presence to educate and comfort others by letting them know they don't need to be ashamed.

[@oliviamartin8163]

I look up to Erin and the clever girls so much and seeing her go through this is so saddening but I know she is so strong and has some of the best people in the world around her supporting her ❤️stay strong Erin, I now you al ready are 🙌🏼

[@Usagi.moon.power.]

Hi Erin! Thank you for being so brave to talk about this. You're so inspiring and strong! We love you! ❤❤❤

[@TaybearXD]

Never would've guessed you're going through this. Just shows that just because someone is gorgeous and you think they're perfect/have the perfect life doesn't mean you're right. Everyone goes through hard times no matter who they are and it's amazing you're showing this. Not only can it help people going through it, but also it helps show that just because it seems like you're perfect and your life is, you still have daily struggles everyone else does. Sometimes people forget that. Sending lots of love and hugs, hope you're doing better.

[@garrettbingaman1605]

This is crushing. Erin is such a bubbling and bright presence. Something we as viewers would have never known. Wishing you the best and hoping for a speedy recovery back to your old self ❤️

[@Daphnaaaa]

Your man is soo supportive. Erin you are a trooper! Can't wait for the next episodes. It is nice to see how open you are about it so that all the other women who follow Clevver can learn from your experiences. Thanks for that!

[@Hestorzg]

Please don't dislike this brave story.

[@aladyfromtx1842]

While I don't have fibroids, I do have a severe invisible illness that causes immense pain on a daily basis. The downhill slide started 1 month before my wedding 8 years ago. I have had 12 surgeries and at least 3x as many procedures in that time with no "cure" in my future. I have learned that is "it's not cancer, it doesn't count". We become marginalized due to lack of education. This documentary is so braver and so needed! I can tell you that I have wondered many times if my husband would have still wanted me if he knew I was going to be broken; a part of me knows he would, but the scared woman on the inside always worries a bit. Soft Hugs!

[@kaylamichalik428]

Wow, you are so inspiring. As a 23 year old woman, I had never heard of fibroids. I'm so glad you are bringing this to light. I'm relatively new to Clevver, but I love y'all already. Praying for you, Erin!

[@spencera9229]

Saw this when it had been posted fifty seconds ago, I feel lucky to be in the first handful of people watching it . Important , inspiring messages

[@jessdanskin5796]

Lily and joslyn are the best best friends

[@kas.sie149]

Erin, you really have given me the motivation and push out of my fear box that I needed. I never wanted to tell anyone about any "issues" I had dealing with the ob/gyn body area. Although I know nothing I have can compare to the issues and struggles you're going through right now. You've really made me more concerned and alert about my health as should all women be. I really hope you get through this, just fight. Like you said "you can't let the pain win" believe in yourself. I have so many good wishes headed you and matt's way.

[@user-xw9ru3ry9d]

my heart really goes out to this.woman, she's so brave posting this

[@mandi4886]

Stay strong! We have all been praying for you!💗

[@craftedbyalison6592]

I'm going through the same journey, where I don't have fiberiods but possibly facing the option of removal of the uterus or to 'burn' the cells that could potential become cancerous. I went through the same thing as far as not seeing a gyno for four years (Insurance didn't cover it.) It is crucial that woman see a gyno, please I beg of you see one, it's very important to your health and your future. I now know that I can't have kids without doctor's help and honestly my husband is sadden by this, I know he is especially when we think I am pregnant but turns out I am negative again. I am praying for you Erin! I don't think your husband would have changed his mind if he knew this now or four years down the road.

[@clevverstyle]

Alison, thank you for this!!!! Sorry that you too had to go on this journey, but hopefully there will be a little bit of hope for you in this series!

[@josiegates3687]

Erin you are a strong woman for putting your story out there for everyone to see and follow with you and your husband. Thank you, as a sufferer of endometriosis, I feel your pain. I wish you all the love and support for you and your family xxx

[@tierneyhewitt879]

Thank you so much for making this. I have Chronic Migraine Syndrome and it's extremely hard to find people that understand invisible illnesses, and seeing you get through it in such an amazing way is so inspiring. You are so brave!

[@najlaOry]

Erin, thank you so much for sharing your story❤️ You are very strong and this will help a lot of women out there. Much love and respect for you❤️

[@madisynhastings9790]

I feel like I should make an appointment right now because I get random cramping that are really painful and I have never been to the gynecologist as a 20 year old … better safe then sorry! thank you Erin for sharing with us what you're going through, I speak for my self and all the fans of clever we love you!

[@Ashhh222]

My mom had 2 fibroids and she waited 8 years to finally get the surgery because they couldn’t tell if it was ovarian cancer. It was the scariest moment of my life because my mom is my best friend and I couldn’t bare the thought of her having cancer. Thankfully she was cancer free and because she waited so long the fibroids grew to the size of a melon. The doctor said it was the most complicated surgery he ever did and he said he almost couldn’t get her to stop bleeding. That doctor saved her life and I don’t know what would have happened if it was another surgeon! I know it truly was a miracle and God saved my mother! Ladies as soon as you find out you have a fibroid please get it out! I know it’s hard but you need to take care of you first💕💕💕 thank you for sharing Erin you are incredibly brave❤️

[@Idekwut_ur_bae5ever]

this brought tears to my eyes erin is literally my idol, she's so strong. dealing with fibroids is such a terrible, terrible thing but she still manages to stay positive. i love you so much, erin!!! sending good vibes to you and your husband

You are strong Erin! I'm praying for you to get well soon! :) sending hugs your way!

I'm really glad that clevver is bringing awareness to this through this documentary to inform people like me that had no idea what this is. Also Erin I really hope you can get through this and I am amazed at your strength

[@ryleepierce4484]

I love you Erin and I'm so inspired by you everyday that I watch your Clevver videos. I'm so sad that you have been going through this but I'm truly moved and touched that you wanted to bring all of us on this very emotional and personal ride with you. you keeping it this REAL with us is just more of the reason we all love to keep up with you and the other amazing strong women that make up the Clevver family. however you are feeling or whatever you may be going through just remember you have 2.2+ million of us always here to listen!
