Future studies are warranted to investigate the decision-making process and the underlying reasons for surgical choices. Decision support strategies pre-surgery are needed to inform women about the risks and benefits of surgery options. Moreover, psychosocial support post-surgery is warranted to relieve women's self-stigma, thus improving their quality of life.
