A hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus, usually done by a gynecologist. Hysterectomy may be total (removing the body and cervix of the uterus) or partial (also called supra-cervical). Although there are conservative alternatives, hysterectomy is performed for uterine fibroids, pelvic pain, pelvic relaxation, heavy or abnormal menstrual bleeding, and cancer.

I had a partial at 23, I only have my ovaries left, and have had to have a ton of scar tissue removed after it, it was filling in alomst all the space where my uterus was.
I know how you feel, there was a huge hormone shift when I had mine, it was like having a baby, and I still feel like they aren't under that great of control.
