Default How common is it to have a voluntary hysterectomy at 22? - 12-27-2008, 03:13 AM

I have a 2 year old son and I am sure beyond a shadow of a doubt that I do not want to be pregnant again ever. I can't stand gaining weight and if I got pregnant I would not stay that way. Are voluntary hysterectomy's common and would it be difficult to find a doctor to perform one on someone my age? If I am sure I don't want kids why should I put up with a period anymore?

Don't get a hysterectomy. You never know if you'll change your mind in the future.Get your tubes tied. That can be reversed.

Good luck finding a doctor that will do it and an insurance company that will cover it.I want my tubes tied, and I can't find a doctor that will do it until I have 3 or more children, even though I'm willing to pay for it out of pocket, and there's a chance of having your tubes tied being able to be reversed. A hysterectomy is forever.
