I had it done in November. Just ovaries and tubes. I was back to work in 2 days. Doctor wanted them out as a precaution too cuz tumor was estrogen positive. Not bad at all.

I only heard it throws you right into menopause. My BRCA test came back negative, otherwise I would've had it too. Just taking tamoxifen.

I had one and I swear it was the best thing that I could of had done, after the pain from the surgery you will feel like a new women, I know I did. I suffered from endometriosis and fibroid tumors, I had so much pain and and bled for months, I had no side effect, I had a complete one and we would do it again
