Anyone had a hysterectomy under the age of 35?

I'm due to have a hysterectomy next month for hideously painful and heavy periods (plus a annoying moderate prolapse).Feeling pretty emotional about the whole idea of being 31 and without a womb..although I can appriecate it will get rid of those sodding awful pains etc.
Didn't plan to have anymore children so thats not the issue.......just this sense of impending doom that I will be barren,unsexy and old before my time.Petrified that sex will be pants too...

not gone through it myself, but a work college had a hysterectomy at 34 for heavy periods, and i cant remember the other reason, she had 3 dc and didnt want anymore, and she has said it was the best thing she ever did as she is not in pain any more or dreading periods, and having to take time off work because of them.

hope everything goes well for you.

Not much help but i was booked for similar-more for the prolapse really.I ducked out when they brought the trolley to collect me.Felt a complete blonde and wish id thought about it more beforehand. <br /> If your totally sure you dont want any more dc they im sure you`ll feel tons better tho.And as for sex - i - ness - it should be tons better.No prolapse and no messy periods-oooh lovely
