Hi guys!
I'm worried with a troublesome doubt and I would like to ask you even if I'm already waiting for my doc's answer. The doubt is: which is the minimum time taking T required to get a total hysterectomy? Does something like that exist?
I know that the body couldn't be without sexual hormones because of bone mass, and all the mess it could cause to the body and mind... But lemme say, for example, that a guy on 4 months on T gets his hysto, wouldn't him have a problem with that?
I'm kinda worried with this, because an MtF friend said to me that MtFs shouldn't remove their testicles with less than one year on HRT, but I guess for transguys it's different, isn't?
Please, help me... It's been a while since I sent my question, and my doc haven't answered me yet...

Thank you guys!

There is no rule about time on T and hysterectomy. (In the U.S., anyway) Since it is a surgery that some cis women undergo at various ages and for various reasons, there are protocols in place that address the need or desire for hormone replacement.  In the case of the FTM taking testosterone, that hormone will be your replacement.  One might experience undesirable changes in body chemistry with NO hormones, but it is not fatal.  Since a testosterone regimen is already in place, you will be fine...

My only worry is that I could get break through bleeding at any time in the future.  I have heard of guy getting it after being on t for a short or long time so I know it is possible.  A hysto would complete end this possibility form ever happening to me.

The stories that I have heard about that are guys who have been on T for years, which makes it even more distressing to happen.

Thank you for your reply. Any update from my doctor I will post here. 

I had to be on T for a year until I got a hysto. I am not sure if the 1 year waiting time is required by WPATH, but it is required for my insurance.
