PCOS Diagnosis and Hysterectomy: Seeking Advice

I've been diagnosed with PCOS for a few years now. My doctors have said a hysterectomy is out of question because they think I'll change mind about having kids. There is too much illness in my family and I don't want kids. My mind will never change about that. What are your thoughts? I'd just like to have a conversation.

Can you help? Connect today

Hyster won’t cure pcos. You still will have hormonal issues :( just no painful period

I had ovarian drilling (yes, that's the technical name) done and it was really helpful at regulating my periods for a few years. It is also done for better fertility as well (which doesn't matter) but it does regulate periods which is nice if you're irregular.

I was also denied the surgery to remove my ovaries but due to age and having children no one batted an eye when I wanted my tubes tied. My cycle is suppressed with low dose birth control (skipping placebo week). That has helped more than anything!
