Does PMS go away with hysterectomy and ovary removal?
I was scheduled for a hysterectomy when I found out that the doctor I had doing it was not respected in the field. I have a new doctor that is doing a vaginal hysterectomy on Monday and I have only one ovary left in me now. I am curious how, if you keep your ovary does PMS go away? My PMS is directly associated with ovulation for me and it is severe. I am high risk for ovarian cancer but at this point I only have cysts once in a while on my remaining ovary. The doctor is leaving the decision to me as to whether I leave it or not (as long as it looks healthy when she gets in there) I am very confused and don’t know what to do! I do not want PMS any longer and I am 40 years old. I worry constantly about ovarian cancer but I also don’t want to do the wrong thing. Can you tell me how PMS and leaving the ovary correlate if they do at all?? Pro’s and con’s please. I only have a few days left and I just have to make a decision/I hear so many different things that I am just so confused.
