If you need to have a hysterectomy by all means get it done. I had a total hyst. when I was 29 years old. Thank goodness I had already had kids (3). I had been batteling endometrosis and mult surgeries and had had enough. I have not regretted it once and haven't had any problems. I stayed in the hosp. about 4 days and of course your a bit sore the first few days, but if you stay medicated you won't care. LOL. I take a hormone pill every day and don't miss having a period at all. I did not gain any weight afterward. I wish you a lot of luck and hope everything goes well for you. A surgery is always a scary thing, but if you have confidence in your doctor you'll feel better in the long run. Take care.
