Hysterectomy query

I had a preventative hysterectomy after treatment finished.  It was done laparoscopically, no pain to speak of, just a dull ache for day or two.  It was actually hard to remember not to lift things as I felt so normal.  Like you, I had a cyst beforehand which had caused one ovary to be removed a few years earlier.  There are no side effects I can remember.  I have never regretted having the operation.  One less thing to worry about.  Good luck whatever you decide.
