I have been suffering with symptoms that I thought were premenopausal related, irregular bleeding, pain in side, feeling full painful intercourse and urgency to wee. I had scan last week, which discovered a complex ovarian cyst approx 5 cm ca125 blood tests were 26 which is in normal range

I have family history of cancer, my mum had breast, her 3 sisters (my aunts) have been affected - 1)died of breast cancer @ 40, 2) Breast cancer -mastectomy 3) vulva cancer. My Aunt (2) lost her daughter (my 1st cousin) last year age 49 yrs due to NETS (Neuro Endocrine Tumours)

I am positive things will be ok, I have gynae hospital appointment next week, advice I’m looking for is on whether in view of my age 48, current scare and family history whether they would look favourably on me having a hysterectomy to reduce future risks?
