    Personal question, have you had your menopause yet?? Or started. Once they removed you'll go straight into it if not. If you haven't I'd try to save them if I was you!

    (I'm 30 my last ovary is being affected by cyst on/in it n started menepause as side affect, not fun times. If you don't need to I'd personally try to stave it off for as long as possible)

    I definitely agree with Katie..if you can save you're ovaries or you'll be in menopause . I'm premenopausal and it sucks already. Good luck hun.

    They could probably remove the cysts for you while doing hysterectomy if it's done abdominally. Hope all works out for you. rolleyes
