I don’t I just don’t want to have children so I want my womb removed

I never want to have sex again In my life

So you don't want to have sex again in your life, and you don't want children.

Problem solved. Don't have sex and you won't have children.

So if your trying to avoid having a menstrual cycle, then you should know that even though you don't have a period, as long as your ovaries are in place you will still have PMS and bloating. All the other things you think you might avoid by having a hysterectomy.
There can be complications. Any sex you do decide to have in the future could be uncomforable and painful from scarring.

You go to the psycho doctors and they don't have your best interest at heart. They will tell you everything you want to hear, and leave out all the things they think will give you second thoughts.
It's about the money for them. And they are in the business of making money.

You need to do some research for yourself regarding hysterectomies, the post procedure symptoms, side effects, emotional problems.
What your thinking about doing isn't reversable. You can't change your mind and want it back later.

You sound young. I don't know how old you are, but if your under 30, I wouldn't advise it.

Surgery that removes the ovaries (oophorectomy). Your ovaries produce hormones, including estrogen and progesterone, that regulate the menstrual cycle. Surgery to remove your ovaries causes immediate menopause. Your periods stop, and you're likely to have hot flashes and experience other menopausal signs and symptoms. Signs and symptoms can be severe, as hormonal changes occur abruptly rather than gradually over several years.
Surgery that removes your uterus but not your ovaries (hysterectomy) usually doesn't cause immediate menopause. Although you no longer have periods, your ovaries still release eggs and produce estrogen and progesterone.

Complications​

After menopause, your risk of certain medical conditions increases. Examples include:

  • Heart and blood vessel (cardiovascular) disease. When your estrogen levels decline, your risk of cardiovascular disease increases. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in women as well as in men. So it's important to get regular exercise, eat a healthy diet and maintain a normal weight. Ask your doctor for advice on how to protect your heart, such as how to reduce your cholesterol or blood pressure if it's too high.
  • Osteoporosis. This condition causes bones to become brittle and weak, leading to an increased risk of fractures. During the first few years after menopause, you may lose bone density at a rapid rate, increasing your risk of osteoporosis. Postmenopausal women with osteoporosis are especially susceptible to fractures of their spine, hips and wrists.
  • Urinary incontinence. As the tissues of your vagina and urethra lose elasticity, you may experience frequent, sudden, strong urges to urinate, followed by an involuntary loss of urine (urge incontinence), or the loss of urine with coughing, laughing or lifting (stress incontinence). You may have urinary tract infections more often.
    Strengthening pelvic floor muscles with Kegel exercises and using a topical vaginal estrogen may help relieve symptoms of incontinence. Hormone therapy may also be an effective treatment option for menopausal urinary tract and vaginal changes that can result in urinary incontinence.
  • Sexual function. Vaginal dryness from decreased moisture production and loss of elasticity can cause discomfort and slight bleeding during sexual intercourse. Also, decreased sensation may reduce your desire for sexual activity (libido).
    Water-based vaginal moisturizers and lubricants may help. If a vaginal lubricant isn't enough, many women benefit from the use of local vaginal estrogen treatment, available as a vaginal cream, tablet or ring.
  • Weight gain. Many women gain weight during the menopausal transition and after menopause because metabolism slows. You may need to eat less and exercise more, just to maintain your current weight.
I would seriously consider your options.

If you don't want sex and you don't want children, then abstinence is the safest route to take in my opinion.
Consider the alternatives and the consequences.

Once it's done, there's no turning back.

Hugs

@Ziggy , this member lives in the U.K. and we don’t pay to see mental health doctors. She has also relayed that she has paranoid schizophrenia and other mental health issues, so medication would be something she needs.
I would agree about the hysterectomy option as I had one at the age of 40 and went straight into the menopause, so did my daughter and she has now got other issues as a result. I had to have one, and long term it was the right option, but I am not convinced it was the right option for my daughter.

I feel sexually objectified cause I have breasts

Sexual objectification

Sexual objectification is the act of treating a person solely as an object of sexual desire. Objectification more broadly means treating a person as a commodity or an object without regard to their personality or dignity. Objectification is most commonly examined at the level of a society, but can also refer to the behavior of individuals and is a type of dehumanization.

General​

The sexual objectification of women involves them being viewed primarily as an object of male sexual desire, rather than as a whole person.[4][5][6] Although opinions differ as to which situations are objectionable, many see the objectification of women taking place in the sexually oriented depictions of women in advertising, art and media, pornography, the occupations of stripping and prostitution, and women being brazenly evaluated or judged sexually or aesthetically in public spaces and events, such as beauty contests.[7]

Some feminists and psychologists[8] argue that sexual objectification can lead to negative psychological effects including eating disorders, depression and sexual dysfunction, and can give women negative self-images because of the belief that their intelligence and competence are currently not being, nor will ever be, acknowledged by society.[6] Sexual objectification of women has also been found to negatively affect women's performance, confidence, and level of position in the workplace.[9] How objectification has affected women and society in general is a topic of academic debate, with some saying girls' understanding of the importance of appearance in society may contribute to feelings of fear, shame, and disgust during the transition to womanhood,[10] and others saying that young women are especially susceptible to objectification, as they are often taught that power, respect, and wealth can be derived from one's outward appearance.[11]



1Co 6:19
What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
1Co 6:20
For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

Social media seems to be a big culprit in this situation. Everybody judging everybody by what they look like and not who they are.
I'm not going to go into details concerning self-pleasure and masturbation, because it's a normal part of discovering your body.
Everyone at some point in their life has experimented with themselves. This is not uncommon and neither is it sinful.
And most ages begin around puberty, and teenhood. It's when it becomes obsesive and you can't control yourself it becomes an issue.

You are not your body. Your body is simply a vessel the Lord places his spirit in and works through. You need to respect it and love it and care for it. This goes for both men and women.

I'm not a psychiatriast or any kind of doctor. And I know living in todays society is hard. It's messed up in fact.
And I can't even imagine going to school today. The pressures, the peer pressure. Well, everybodies doing it, it must be ok.
No, it's not ok.
This world don't know God. They don't know his love for All of you. Your body, your mind and your heart.
You are a whole package and he loves you unconditionally. You don't need to change your body. You need to change how you look at yourself. How you treat yourself. You are not simply an object or a commodity for the world to make a profit off of.
You are beautiful, you are unique, and you are God's child.

Ah sweetheart.. I don't know your trials. But I do know they don't last forever. God will bring you through this if you simply put your trust in him. There is nothing abnormal about your sexuality. That is human nature. And as you get older this focus on the outside body isn't so important. What is important is who you are not what you look like.
Focus on the who and not the what.

Praying for you
Hugs
