Still Not Feelin Well After Hysterectomy 3 Yrs Ago

Hi Gina,
I am also sorry you are going through this. I hope your hysterectomy was necessary. Sometimes it is the only option.
I am not a doctor and I am not advising you to get off the hormone therapy.
However, I chose a solid supplement program 15 years ago partly because every woman in my family except for an aunt who is about 85, had a hysterectomy and I didn't want that. Before, I had horrible problems with my cycle and also was told I had endometriosis. After a couple of months, all those problems went away. Almost 2 years ago, my period stopped when I was 54. Other than a couple of hot flashes, I have sailed through menopause and feel great.
If you would like to know about the supplements and how to have more energy I would love to help.
Good luck and God bless.

Have you had your thyroid checked out. Also try a Natural Doctor. Maybe they come up with a serum for you that will help. Can I ask why they took your ovaries if you had endometriosis. I had my hysterectomy 10 years ago and I feel like a million bucks most of the time. But I they did not take my ovaries I also had endomtrioses You have been thrown into menopause at such a young age. Start reading and researching what you can do for yourself. I feel horrible for you.

I have a friend who had to get a hysterectomy at a young age. She told me that the doctor put her on synthetic hormones and she ended up on a couple of different anti-depressants. Once she went to a special doctor who dealt in the bio-identical hormones she was able to start the hormones and quit the other medications. She said she never felt better.

Has your doctor checked you for anything else? I only ask because I also had a hysterectomy when I was 27 (partial), and afterwards still had a number of problems, including extreme fatigue. After 10 years of different and seeming unrelated health issues, I found out that I have Lupus. I don't know that you have Lupus, of course, but maybe there is simply something else going on and the hysterectomy is getting the blame.

Good luck :)
