Reply to "hysterectomy and a j-pouch"

CJBMember

Hi, after 20 years with my pouch I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer almost 2 years ago. So I’ve done chemotherapy and had a hysterectomy 18 months ago. Besides the chemo, which was hell for my pouch, I actually think the hysterectomy has made my pouch happier. Not sure why, but I feel like I have a lot less urgency when it’s full. Maybe I have more room? In any case, the hysterectomy hasn’t adversely affected my pouch. My hysterectomy was done robotically and everything was removed through my vagina. Let me know if you have any other questions.
