Brief Answer:
hysterectomy is reasonable option

Hi and welcome.
Considering your age, symptoms and difficulties,hysterectomy with ovariectomy is reasonable option and it will lead to complete disappear of your symptoms. Medications has limited efficiency and it may not be helpful. Cysts and endometrial thickening may be precancerous so sooner or later it will have to be removed. After removal there are no any consequences. Soul need hormonal therapy maybe and that's it. Wish you good health.Regards
