she did keep it and it was because there was no family history of uterine cancer. she had 3-4 immediate family members die of ovarian cancer. She knows she cannot prevent cancer 100% but is doing what she can within reason. I notice men are sounding off on this as if she were an idiot, but I wonder how many of them have close family members who have died of these reproductive cancers and/or who carry the BRAC1 gene.

I’m fine with her removing what she feels is at risk. I think that the men are afraid that if there is testicular cancer in their history that they will be expected to do that surgery. LOL My nephew we now call the one ball wonder for that very reason.
