Important choice: Maybe. That's an important decision. Consideration should be given to potential desire for children as well as risk vs benefit of having he surgery against risk vs benefit of waiting. This decision should be made after a conversation with you GYN about these topics and with full understanding of all your options. Don't be afraid to ask your GYN because this is truly an important quetion.
