Re: Ok, slightly stressed
I just had my ovaries out 2 weeks ago - because this past May my annual routine pelvic/transvaginal ultrasound showed a simple cyst in my right ovary. Not a big deal for the general population, but my onc. and gyn. both wanted them out - they did not like "activity" in my now post-menopausal ovaries.
Combined this with a bladder lift that I had done previously in 2004 (uterus out then too), but it fell again due to chemo. At home recuperating, happy to be sans ovaries.
all the best
