I am scheduled to have a hysterectomy in 3
weeks but I just took a home pregnancy
test and it was postitive. I have an 18
month old and a 7 year old and I was
finished having children. There were
complications with my last child and my
husband and I decided that we were
finished. I have a prolapsed uterous and
endometriosis which has caused pain on a
daily basis. What should I do???? Any
advice???

Hysterectomy Answer A141 Posted: 01-18-06 16:48pm
With the gynecological diseases present in
your history (CERVICAL DYSPLAYSIA, CYSTS,
ENDOMETRIOSIS) coupled with your decision
not to have children any more, you can
immediately proceed with a hysterectomy.
Don’t worry about the actual pregnancy;
once your uterus is removed, your
gynecological disorders will be tabled,
including the pains associated with this
current pregnancy.
