Someone please help...

I am 22, I was diagnosed with PCOS when i was about 14/15. I have always had really bad period pains and irregular periods but the past few years it has gotten a lot worse. I have had several cysts burst over the past few years and have also had one grow in my Fallopian tube. Back in November 2020 I had another scan and was told the cysts had gotten worse, and are destroying my ovaries and they also believe I have Endometriosis.

I have a gynaecology appointment on the 11th Feb 2021. (Thursday). I've been waiting for this appointment since my scan results came back in November. The appointment is to discuss my next options, which I've already been told it's looking at surgery to remove my ovaries because I've tried all other methods and medication to help control the cysts and symptoms and they have all failed.

I've never had an operation in my life... I am 22 and without kids (which doesn't really bother me). But can someone give me advice on what to expect for Thursday and if someone has had the surgery some advice on what to expect with the operation... what they do? how long it takes? the recovery time? etc... just needing some support really more than anything.
