you really have no use for your uterus at age 53 especially if you are getting your ovaries removed. the uterus will serve no purpose other than becoming a place that can form a cancer. i don't know the details of your case but it would see prudent to remove the uterus at the same time as the ovaries. there are no pros for leaving it in.
im having my ovaries removed but have been asked to consider having a hysterectomy at the same time. should i im 53. i have been asked to consider a hysterectomy - presumably because of my age? what are the pro's and cons of this. could it be that it is easier to surgically remove it all than just remove the ovaries? the ovaries have large dermoid cysts so need to come out but everything else is ok i think.
