Is a hysterectomy required when you have ovarian cancer? Just asking because they do a mastectomy for breast cancer.

the hysterectomy will reduce the chances of ovarian cancer, just like a mastectomy will in breast cancer

they sometimes include the ovary or ovaries to make sure that the cancer did not spread there.

maybe the hysterectomy is like the last resort. kinda like a mastectomy in breast cancer.
