Removal choices

Having my first fibroid removal. 9 years ago I had the laparoscopy for endo but this is obviously different. My doctor gave me two choices. To go in like a c-section or through the vaginal wall and the option is stressing me out. I hear you can have painful sex after the scar tissue build but vaginally but also don’t want them to cut through my abs. Can you share your recovery and if you would make the same option again? Thank you!
