I going to have a Salpingo-oophorectomy (Hysterectomy) here soon but i don't know what the pro or cons are of having it all removed. I'm thinking about keeping one ovary if the doc says it looks good. So if it is good should i keep one or have it all removed. what do you feel like after you have had it all removed? what do you feel like when only part is removed? thanks you to all who answer.
I had a hysterectomy 4 years ago in which they removed the uterus and fallopian tubes. My doctor checked my ovaries and said that they looked good and decided not to remove them. He said that this would also mean I wouldn't need hormones. The only thing is sometimes I still have the symptoms of a period but no period. I started having problems and the doctor tried me on hormones but they seemed to make me too hormonal and emotional. I'm fine without them. If they are going to remove it all then I think I'd go for it so you don't have anything to worry about later on like ovarian cancer, etc. I feel so much better since I've had mine and don't have all the drama each month. Good luck!!
My mom had a Hysterectomy when I was 10 and she seemed normal to me and she had no pain. To make you feel better, she had everything taken out!!! Hope I help!
