No one should have a hysterectomy unless they have cancer. Hysterectomy is major surgery and it is destructive.

@sophiem77: This article may support your opinion.
Today, 12/2/2024, NY Times has published an interesting article about hysterectomy and patients lack of knowledge in some cases what exactly

leave behind." If you don't subscribe to the NY Times, maybe you know someone who has a subscription and can share the link with you.
It also mentions this study on the benefits to conserve the ovaries, read the
conclusion:
