Hi @Pammy46. I'm a Central Coast girl too, and had my ovaries and tubes out late last year. Chemo in 2014 had forced me into early menopause, but my ovaries became active again last year and I began having heavy bleeds. Also, I had cysts on my ovaries, which had become over 8cm in size, and my breast cancer was hormone positive. After having hystercoscopy and curettage (to make sure it wasn't anything more serious), my gynae recommended the surgery and my oncologist agreed - so I did too. The only side effect has been extreme hot flushes which I'm not enjoying at all - especially all through the night. However, I'm glad I had the surgery done, as it removes risk of ovarian cancer and I don't have to worry about heavy periods any more. All the best with yours :)
