I know of two women who have had it, one close to my age (I’m 23) and one close to my mothers age (in her early 40s) Both women said it was the best thing they ever did, because of the severe bleeding they were experience. My mother opted not to get it done, and received a hysterectomy instead, because of endometriosis spreading onto her intestines. But, she did consider it. My mother’s friend says she was half asleep when they put her legs straight up in the air in the stirrups, and then she woke up later and wasn’t in pain. She then discovered bruises on her butt…still unsure about those. But, her excessive bleeding went away! And my younger friend was told she could still have children (she has one) but I’m pretty sure you don’t want children…or I could be remembering incorrectly Does your doctor recommend one for you? Is it because of excessive bleeding? I would try to find the cause if you can. My mother had a sonohysterograph and that helped discover her female problems.
