Should I have my ovaries removed when I have a hysterectomy?
Your Information
Your choices are:
Have your uterus removed, but keep your ovaries (hysterectomy only).
Have both your uterus and your ovaries removed (hysterectomy with oophorectomy).
The decision whether to have your ovaries removed when you have a hysterectomy takes into account your personal feelings and the medical facts.
