Dear Kriss,
I am er-/pr- and brac1 and 2 -. So I was not at risk of ovarian cancer according to onc and gyno. I am also menopausal, prior to chemo and I am 51 now.
However, I discussed with the doctors and he said, you can remove for peace of mind.
About 4 years ago I had an endometrial ablation because of intermittent bleeding.
So earlier this year I had the ooph. No regrets. something less to think about. Sometimes I tell people, I wish I could fill my organs with styrofoam, like the liver and the kidney and the lungs, and the brain LOLOLOLOLOL.
I had a little time to recover. I had a lot of scar tissue from the ablation so the procedure took a little longer than expected and was slower to recover. I also have a stomach flap of tissue hanging out there like after a c section afterwards that I am desperately trying to exercise away with little success. Also be aware that when there's ovaries removal, there could be an increase in weight so don't eat that chocolate cake!
Lots of love
Maria (mcs)
