Have you had a hysterectomy and did you keep/not keep your ovaries?
But I feel to make a better judgement it would be good to listen to others experiences, so please if you have had a hyst with or without

Seen by haematologist - no further forward at moment
Hi everyone thanks for your help with preparing for appointment - I was well armed when I saw haematologist today. Not got much further really. Apparently when I was pregnant/having miscarriages (2004)they did 2 tests, but only told me about one. One test positive for lupus anti-coagulant, one negative

Hi I recently had a CA125 test and a transvag which showed up a mass
(cystectomy's and
removal
of left fallopian and
ovary
plus bladder repair due to adhesions on bowel/bladder/uterus. I wasn't offered MRI or CT scan. Going back in July for a follow up scan and blood test. I'm 45 and a bit worried that his diagnosis of IBS and adhesions might be incorrect.

Ovary removal
I am 66 years old. I have been monitored for fibroids. This week I went for an ultrasound scan and vaginal scan. The fibroids had shrunk but my right ovary had enlarged. in September the scan showed a cyst on my ovary. The gynaecologist advised me to have my ovaries removed and is making an appointment

Sex after surgical menopause
Hi there, I realise this might be a delicate topic but I'm wondering if anyone has any advice or tips for me! I've been in the surgical menopause since August 2010 after having a BSO at age 33...unfortunately I can't have HRT as my tumours were oestrogen-receptive and I'm finding some aspects of

Gallbladder removal even more fatigued
Had to be admitted to hospital last Monday as emergency. Never been so ill they removed my gallbladder on the Tuesday said it was badly infected and and all the gallstones had gone solid. Had keyhole surgery anybody else had this done ? Was just wondering if having PBC makes the recovery any longer ?

I am looking to find out any information from anyone who has experienced removal of ovaries pre menopause?
I ‘m 42 with a history of endometriosis and fibroids and a Mother who died from OC aged 57 (diagnosed at 46). I have just had my annual ovarian screening and am awaiting an appointment with a consultant after another potential fibroid has been found, it’s blocking the view of my left ovary so the sonographer

Any tips for dealing with fatigue associated with surgical menopause?
I seem to be really, really tired most of the time (not even a strong cuppa wakes me up!) and I'm suspecting it's the surgical menopause. (I can't have HRT as my tumours were strongly oestrogen receptive). My gynaecologist gave me a review paper to read from the Royal College of Gynaecologists/Obstetricians

Day 2 post surgery
Still in hospital having had a left
ovary
and tube

via key hole surgery for diagnosed stage 1a borderline tumour. Biopsies taken of other ovary, omentum, liver and kidney. Hope to get results back in 10 days! Just waiting to brave having my first shower and removing the bandages!

Great Sunday Times Article Dec 09
This article came out recently in the Sunday Times - brilliantly written story: I was just 40 when I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. That’s pretty unusual — only 15% of cases occur in women below the age of 50. It’s one of those diseases that’s completely unsexy. It lacks the trendy factor: we don

Ovacome launch Young Ovarian Cancer Support Network
Hi everyone. I'd like to introduce myself. I'm Kerry, I was 37 when I was eventually diagnosed last year. I finished treatment (surgery and chemo) in February 2010. After treatment ended I was relieved on the one hand but on the other, I felt as though I'd been cast adrift in the ocean, with no prior
