Please look into the cobra stimulus plan for continued health insurance after losing your job... Laura

Yeah, check COBRA but don't expect any monetary miracles. My COBRA co-pay was over $500/mo and that was 10 years ago when I was 29, healthy, and single. That might be worth it if you need fibroid surgery, though. Pretty sure they will make you "back pay" for coverage since you left the company, but you should be able to stay on this for 18 months at least.

A better bet might be Planned Parenthood. If nothing else, they are used to people coming in without insurance and may be able to let you know about programs you wouldn't find out about otherwise. I just read an article about how many people are using them as their primary care right now ... Makes sense for the younger set. I only ever saw my primary care doctor for yearly PAP smears and birth control perscriptions until I was 35.

If COBRA isn't helpful, see if your state has a health insurance pool. Also, if you have any interest in going back to school for anything you might consider it more seriously now as a lot of times there is student insurance available for people who carry as few as 6 college hours per semester.

DO NOT forfeit your health due to lack of insurance. Find a way to have your needs met. I recently lost a friend to cervical cancer all because she neglected important signs because she had no health insurance.

I have a daughter who is a type I diabetic.She also had a bone tumor when she was 10 and seizures when she was one. Getting insurance for her is next to impossible, but the health insurance pool is an option. right now she is a college student and can get the student insurance. Those are the only two options i know of other that empoyer sponsored group coverage.

I hope you can find something. In the mean time, check out natural supplements the tout increasing you progesterone levels and/or reducing your estorgen levels. I have also read that birth control pills can be helpful and in most states you can get those very cheap or free from county health clinics. Most county health clinics also offer some free gynecological services. If things get really bad and you can't find any help, consider moving to one of the six states that prohibit insurance companies feom utilizing the pre-existing clause. most of these states are in the northeast, although I believe Washington state also prohibits this. Back the health care bill!
