I have large fibroids causing major bleeding (blood loss so bad the doctors have been debating transfusion for the last month & a half). I have to make a decision whether to try for a myomectomy or a hysterectomy.

I haven't heard much discussion re implications for sex/sexuality after hysterectomy. My doctor says that since he'd leave my ovaries, I'd still be able to orgasm normally--but does sex itself still feel good/normal?? I'll be really angry if I not only lose my chance at childbearing (I'm 39), but also have a lousy sex life afterward (sex is about much more than just orgasm). If anyone can tell me about their experience--did it significantly change your sex life, sensation, etc., I'd be most grateful--I have to schedule surgery this week! Thanks!!
