I had my MRI done recently since whenever I have my menstruation, I will suffer for 3-5 days of excruciating pain. The results shows that I've adenomyosis of abt 3 mths fetus size in my womb and dermoid cyst of 6cm x 3.5cm on my left ovary. 10 yrs ago, I had endometriosis removed from my right ovary. My gynae suggested that I undergo hysterectomy with both my ovaries remove since I am already 49 yrs old. I wanted to leave my right ovary for hormone purposes but my Dr. was telling me that the dermoid cyst will appear again if I were to keep it and at my age, there's no assurance that it will be cancerous. I've read in the internet and research shows that by leaving one of the ovary, cancer cells will ever take place. It is just convenient for the gynea to remove everything to solve the whole issue. I'm confused and worried at the same time not knowing what to do or expect. Would appreciate some advise if anyone gone thru this experience as I've to undergo for an op soon.
