                        I would go to the hospital medical  record dept and ask for a copy of your  operative report, it should be on the  op report if your ovaries were removed.  My mom died of ovarian-breast cancer at  44 so I know your concern, for that  reason when I had to have a hysterectomy  my ovaries were removed. At 41 I had  already had a cancer scare with a complex cyst removed from my ovary and  due to my family hx my surgeon opted to  take my ovaries as well.  Good Luck to  you, If you do have your ovaries I would  get yearly checkups and a CA-125, blood test for ca. Ovarian ca is difficult to diagnosis until its advanced and most  often too late.
