Hi, I would first say she should ask her Onc if that would be a good move for her. I felt compelled to do it and had a laproscopic surgery to have ovaries, tubes, uterous, and cervix removed. The surgery was pretty easy, had to take it easy after to be safe, but felt really good. The side effects are hot flashes, possible emotional ups and downs, and I dropped the Tamoxifen to go on Femara and had the resulting joint pains that have gotten worse as time goes on. The good thing for me was I was latter found to be BRCA2+ which means I would have had the surgery anyway so I just took care of business early thank God. If she decides to go forward with it there is a Hystersisters website that might be of interest to her. hope this helps!
