Removing Ovaries

I would like to hear from ladies that had their ovaries removed. What were some side effects from this? My GYN ONC told me it is like going 100mph in a car and hitting a brick wall when you surgically induce menopause, but necessary in these circumstances. I have been in treatment for 4.5 years and have always wanted to remove them, but being this young 32 at the original DX the ONC took other measures until now (37) and my liver biposy suggest that I could respond well to AI's even though originally I didn't respond to tomixifen for very long. Maybe 4 months? Surgery is scheduled for Tuesday and I am not scared at all, but I would like to know what I am in store for afterwards.

Thank you
