You are very ignorant: ovaries are quite separate from the uterus and are often left and only the uterus removed, specifically to prevent the woman going into premature menopause overnight. Obviously this is only the case where there's a medical reason for removing the uterus but the ovaries are healthy. The ovaries don't rot, they continue to produce the hormones which prevent menopause.
The word menopause at the start of my post is a mistake on my part: I meant to type hysterectomy but was interrupted so didn't read it before sending.
Woe woe woe is me for making such an unforgiveable error, please please please forgive me ......
Am I too young to consider hysterectomy?
