Pre-Op
Hi
I was perimenopausal at the time of my TVH and I decided to keep my ovaries if they were healthy. I was lucky that they were indeed healthy and I'm glad that I was able to keep them. They are still working fine and I'm doing well. They probably aren't working as well as they did when I was younger, but I feel that every little bit helps.
It is a very personal choice and one that only you can make with the guidance of your doctor. I agree with Jean, weigh all the pros and cons to help with your decision.
I wish you the best with your upcoming surgery and pray that you are led to the right decision for you.
