Feedback on full histerectomy and how it affected you?

Hi, I am fourty seven and my doctor suggests a hysterectomy to solve problems with fibroids and heavy painful periods. One says just the uterus removal the other says ovaries too, and then of course hormone treatments after. I have a high rate of cancer in my family so getting rid of organs that will eventually shrivel up anyway seems like it would reduce my risk for cancer there. Yet I am concerned of how hard it will be to recover from surgery, how it my mental health will be because of the instant menopause I will go through and of course I have been told I will no longer have orgasiums. So any women who would share their experince with me as to how you might have done with this would really be helpful in making my descion.
