Ovariectomy after SAH Hyster 2 yrs later

2 years after a hysterectomy, I just had an ovariectomy. Which means I had a benign tumor the size of a tennis ball removed from my left ovary - and the ovary removed, because they couldn't save it. They also removed a benign tumor the size of a walnut, from my right ovary but left the ovary. Full belly incision, again. Feel like I went through hysterectomy twice. I'm finding this belly incision is like a horse shoe under my skin and left me with an incision that the bottom is flush, and the top of the incision is like an over hang, even more pronounced than the first one. I was never heavy to begin with and always had a flat stomach. When I talked to the dr. before surgery and he saw the indentation of the scar from hysterectomy 2 yrs prior, (different dr.) he said he would use the same incision and do a better job on the outcome., that the incision wouldn't be noticed. I'm 11 days out of surgery. I feel like i have more of a defined pouch, that he states on follow up that it should go away, or is he just saying it to appease me. I'm worried about a belly pouch, worried about right ovary; has anyone else had problems with their ovaries after their SAH?
Hope to hear from you.

Ovariectomy after SAH Hyster 2 yrs later

Jamie, I had my ovaries removed the same way. It seems fairly common to have cyst trouble after a hysterectomy. Its been almost 3 years since my BSO and I have still have a little belly pouch, I haven't done much on helping it to go away, but maybe one day I will. I hope that yours goes back to the way you want. I wish you a continous uneventful recovery. Keep us posted.
