hysterectomy??

Hi,

I’m just looking for some advice really….

At 37 and after having my children (8&4) I’ve been left with weak pelvic floor, bladder and uterine prolapse.

I’m under gynae and have had physio input, pessary and have symptoms of uncomfortable periods, back pain, incontinence issues (stress on the bladder). I’ve been told my options are to manage with physio and pessary, bladder repair, mesh repair or hysterectomy.

I’m not planning anymore children, and feel if I was to carry another child, my symptoms would get worse. It’s having a huge impact on my life and I’m at a loss of what to do next. My thoughts are hysterectomy but unsure of what the benefits would be and if symptoms would inface get any better. I have a family history of fibroids and endometriosis.

Just looking for advice or experiences as I have no one to speak to about this really and my consultant is a bit brash and there’s not really a rapport there.

Many thanks.
