After hysterectomy and R oophorectomyFrom: Deb (anonymous@obgyn.net)Thu, 10 May 2001 11:32:21 -0500 (CDT)
I am 36 years old, have PCOS & Diabetes and 6 years ago had a hysterectomy and R oophorectomy due to uterine hyperplasia and stage 1 uterine cancer. They drilled my remaining left ovary and kept it. Now, I have found out that I have a very large mass on this ovary- five inches by 3 inches. I have talked to my doctor and he thinks that they will ilkely try just removing the mass and leave the ovary, that is if it isn't cancer. I want them to take it out and put me on hormone replacement because I do not want the threat of cancer looming over me. MY doc also said that the likelihood of this happening again is quite high. For the life of me, I cannot understand why they are so reluctant to remove it, all they keep saying is I am so young! I feel I am way to young to be worrying about wether or not that ovary is going to kill me someday. I was wondering if anyone has any experiences like mine to share with me. I need some advice from people who really know how it feels to be in this situation. You can email me at dmatters@silvercrest.ab.ca. Thanks for your replies. Deb
