hysterectomy

635918 tn?1239814835 I was prescribed Clonopin following my hysterectomy and it casued me as many problems as the other meds. I wasn't told they were habit forming and as always I got hooked. I had to cut off. If she can find something that is comparable and non-narcotic, I would recommend she switch before she gets dependent on them.
Avatar m tn I expressed this to my doctor and he was willing to do a total hysterectomy on me, but he wants me to give the Seasonique a go before we proceed. He would do a full hysterectomy on me because of the endo, but my concern is that I simply do not want to age fast. I don't want to go through menopause and I heard sex gets weird after a hysterectomy. I don't want to be reliant on BC forever.

Avatar m tn Do you need hormones after a total hysterectomy? When do you know you need hormones after a total hysterectomy? Is there any problems if you do not take hormones after a total hysterectomy (46 years old)?
Avatar m tn I am a female age 44yrs. and I had a hysterectomy in Nov 2010. An associate said that due to the lack of certain hormones present after a hysterectomy it may hinder or slow the process of healing of broken/fractured bones. Is this true?
Avatar f tn Since there is very little information, it is hard to answer your question. However, it is obvious that if you are bleeding and you had a hysterectomy 19 years ago, you need to see your doctor right away. Please schedule an appt. with your gynocologist and good luck!

Avatar n tn I was reading another womens story about itching after her hysterectomy i also have that same problem and i also dont take harmones. I believe it does have to do with the hysterectomy, does any one else have this problem?
Avatar f tn You had a partial hysterectomy, meaning you still have your ovaries and wont necessarily go into early menopause, although it does increase the risk. Your ovaries are the organs producing the hormones, not the uterus. I would have to say it would be extremely unlikely, most likely impossible for both your eggs to make it through your tubes AND sperm making the journey to find an egg without the guidance of your uterus. A one in a million chance if that.
Avatar n tn After having a vaginal hysterectomy, my Mom (mid 60's) went back to her obgyn for her hysterectomy follow up and was told she had Stage 2 cancer. Here is exactly what the Dr. said: "invasive adenocarcinoma. Invasion into outer half of muscle of uterus. No extension to outside of uterus. Stage 2". He wrote this down for my mom. How does this all sound to you?
Avatar f tn So I go in on December 3rd for my hysterectomy and I am so scared lol. Any words of advice would be much appreciated. And what to expect after.

Avatar f tn Please someone tell me how I can get some relief. I had a hysterectomy and the area stays very dry, however when ever I am intimate with my husband we always use a lubricant so it is not brothersome. Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!
692703 tn?1227546586 My beautiful Fiancee had ovarian cancer 17 years ago and she had a total hysterectomy. I was wondering with all the advancements in medicine known today, is there any possibilities of us having a baby? We are going through all the necessary means to adopt but to have our own baby would just be amazing. if you would be so kind as to let me know. than...
Avatar f tn My doctor tried to do a hysteroscopy and D&C on me (in hospital, general anesthesia) and said cervix is completely scarred shut. 3 weeks until my follow up. We still don't know what is the "area of concern" in my uterus. She mentioned we'll talk hysterectomy next. I'm 46. Do I have options? Trans vag US showed this area, unsuccessful Saline Ultrasound - the wall is up apparently. I do not want to play roulette. If doc thinks it is cancer, I want it out.
Avatar f tn C section is scheduled for August 7th; however, due to the location of my fibroids I may have to have an emergency hysterectomy...is anyone else in a similar situation? Does anyone know anything about how that might impact recovery? Pregnancy has been basically perfect and baby is doing great otherwise!!
Avatar n tn My doctor recommends I get a total hysterectomy. I am 49 years old. I have been having alot of bloating and pain, he says I need a hysterectomy and he is concerned about the 2.6 complex septated cyst so I need to get everything removed. what do you think I should do is getting a hysterctomy the best, I have tried to get more information on complex septated cyst,what exaclty are they, can not find any concrete information on them?
Avatar f tn I was told I have cysts and endometrosis. Im in horrible pain and am prescribed two Lortab 7.5s a day which honestly isn't enough some days. Some days the pain is so bad I take one and it doesn't help so a couple hours later I have to take another one. I don't want to do Lupron and only 26 almost 27 and have a 17 month old daughter. Im scared to do the hysterectomy. I don't know what to do.
Avatar n tn No family history of cancer except pre-cancer polyps (both my mom, and me) in the colon. She had hysterectomy in her mid-20s due to cervical cancer...so who knows about her uterus, and my grandma also had hysterectomy in her 20s due to fibroids and ovarian cysts. She died at 63 of brain tumor. No other significant history. I have had 18 months of chronic GI issues, that have been thouroughly worked up, and all tests are normal.
Avatar f tn 1 with my second child, gall bladder removal, nissan fundoplication, tubal ligation, and last year a complete hysterectomy. The ileus developed after the hysterectomy surgery. My GI system has not been the same since. I have seen several doctos and have not even been given the time of day, I cannot get any of them to answer my questions regarding the GI issues I am experiencing. I then began to try to do some of my own research.
