I had mine out last year, and I haven't regretted it for one second. It was the easiest thing I have ever done. I had them out using laparoscopy. I was recovered in a mere day. Not fully recovered, but back to doing my thing.

I believed I had a risk of ovarian cancer based on family history and my own breast cancer. Plus, my cancer was er/pr positive. I wanted no more children. So, it was an easy decision. I made the decision and TOLD my onc about it.

Didn't ask. I told her what I wanted, and she sent me to the gynecologist that she recommended for it.

Hope this helps...
