Answers:
Have you considered the birth control pill? Only 4 periods a year, and no menopausal symptoms.
There's another less invasive procedure where they go in and basically sear the inside of your uterus. You'll not have kids, you'll not have periods, and you can get back to work quickly.
A hysterectomy is major surgery. You will not be fully recovered for 6-8 weeks. And if they take the ovaries too, you may end up taking hormone replacement therapy.
I'm just a lay person, and you could probably get better advice from a medical professional. Good luck.
