The decision to remove your uterus depends on a number of facts. First, why is your uterus enlarged? Is it from fibroids or adenomyosis (both benign conditions) or something that may be pre-cancerous or cancerous? If the reason is likely benign then the uterus does not need to be removed but if there is a concern for cancer then the uterus must be removed. Second, is the recommendation to remove the uterus because you are expressing concern over significant blood loss during menses? If it is then removing the uterus can help with this but you can also try other things first. These are things like hormone, endometrial ablation, or hormone-containing IUDs. You should discuss this more with your doctor before deciding to remove your uterus.
