I would normally give a 42 year old estrogen.

I'll probably do an LSH when her fibroids act up.

What does it matter-these women are not going to get estrogen anyway. The uterus will just atrophy unless they are morbidly obese, in that case the length of the surgery becomes an increased variability for complications

But why not do a supracervical hyst at that point as well?

Just did one today for ovarian mass - the hysterectomy part took 20 min.

I saw a 42 yr old woman who had a laparoscopic bilateral oopherectomy for ovarian cysts. They left a

"small fibroid uterus" behind. This is the second patient that I've seen with her ovaries removed and a uterus

left in place. They both came from the NY area. Is this a common practice on the east coast?Douglas Krell
