Julie, I would recommend that you do not have any part of your reproductive organs removed. this reduces the amount of estrogen in your body by about 1/3 and it may induce menopause. I had a butcher of a doctor remove my ovary due to adhesions without even reviewing it with me. It put my body into an absolute tailspin. I lost my job, my feelings, and I'm mad as hell. Your ovaries may be functioning perfectly well even in the presence of adhesions. Good luck. DON'T LET A BUTCHER DOCTOR CONVINCE YOU TO SIGN A CONSENT FORM FOR A "DIAGNOSTIC" LAPARSCOPY AND LET THEM PROCEED TO REMOVE YOUR REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS.
