Susan, I believe the writer said the hysterectomy would leave her ovaries. She would, therefore, NOT go into surgical menopause after the surgery, right?
I too have had repeat cervical procedures done to get rid of HPV but there has been enough time between them for my cervix to 'grow back'. I will see later this month if the HPV is gone, once again.
If I were in the writer's shoes, I would have the hysterectomy. I don't say that lightly because I try hard to avoid surgeries. But having this turn in to cancer would be so much worse. (I am a breast cancer survivor because it was caught early and I had a lumpectomy.) Good luck to the writer.
