                        I had a hysterectomy 2 years ago.  I had one for my heavy cycles, etc. I had the total hysterectomy,bso.  I would not do it if I had it to do over.  I got infection from the surgery and had 2 additional surgeries.  I was in the hospital for 21 days.   Now I have to take estrogen for hotflashes.  I would never advise someone to do this uless it was life threatening!
