Hi Kim,
Has your ob run your FSH levels to make sure your in men? They thought I was in men and oops! no I wasn't. I ended up having the ooph and hyst and haven't regreted it one minute. My circumstances were a little different then yours. I was having cysts on my ovaries every month and my FSH levels were rising, but they told me that they couldn't tell me when men would come, and my ob said technically your not in men until you have not had a period for one year. I hadn't had one for 16 months and then bam they hit and of course they stopped right before the surgery, but according to the u/s I still had cysts.
My personal opinion and that is all it is, is at your age your going to either be in it or are in it, but without more info it's hard to tell. I would have them run the FSH and if your low, then why wait. Why should you have to wait another year before you can go on AI's if you want to? It's your body and your decision. Others w/more knowledge in this area I am sure will chime in. That was mine and I would also if you can look into the LAVH. It was so much easier then the other one, where they give you the smiley face scar on your tummy. I had to remind myseld I had major surgery I felt so good. Best to you..
