Hysterectomy side effects
Common Questions and Answers about Hysterectomy side effects
hysterectomy
But the risks and side effects of hysterectomy involve a much longer list than prolapse. I had a hysterectomy 9 years ago and speak from experience as well as the knowledge I have gained since undergoing this damaging surgery.
The bladder and bowel descend without the uterus to separate them and hold them in place. Even absent prolapse, this often alters their functions. I experience intense pain when both my bladder and bowel are full. And they sometimes do not empty completely.
What I can do it retweet your question and see what my Endosisters have to say who have had a hysterectomy. I can find out what they used to help them with the side effects.
any suggestions from ppl that may have gone through this would be appreciated? The doctor told me that the side effects from hysterectomy are not that bad as long as they leave the ovaries. I am in a little bit of a panic and not sure what route would be best.
Thank you Dr. for your response and after 2 months I am doing good but my gynaec has asked me to continue with Premarin for another 4 months and he has also asked me to start with Cavit PM.
read the fine print of common side effects...many many women get serious depression/crying weeping from this injection. In all other ways it does work if you dont get the side effects ..its fine...but the depression is so very severe I know many women will not chance it,.
A hysterectomy is always last resort its a very difficult surgery and recovery dont let any DR talk you into it ...unless you get 2-3 opinions I say this because your only symptom is a enlarged uterus...no heavy bleeding ?
Hello, my wife had a full hysterectomy approximately 10 years ago and everything was taken out, EVERYTHING. She had a few cysts and her gynecologist suggested a full hysterectomy due to the fact that the cysts could come back if she were to get a a half hysterectomy. Long story short, she's a strong woman who really keeps it together but she has recently expressed that she's been battling depression.

However, I have been having some pretty difficult side effects that have become more uncomfortable since my 50mcg increase. The symptoms have been extreme sweating even when it's cooler. Moving around at a slow pace I break out into a sweat, my head drenched. My menstrual cycle has not regulated either, prolonged bleeding. My appetite has increased as well as anxiety. I have chest heaviness on and off, too.
Normal Range 0.40-5.00 and my results last week were 4.63.
Hi,
Even with a total hysterectomy,the body will still produce some estrogen which is effectively blocked with an aromatase inhibitor (such as arimidex,Femara etc). In one study, aromatase inhibitors were found to offer greater benefit than tamoxifen in Post- menopausal women.Tamoxifen blocks the estrogen especially to the breast tissue. This is an important distinction because aromatase inhibitors cannot be used in Pre- menopausal women.
I had a hysterectomy and am suffering the many after effects. Knowing what I have since learned and experienced, I would not allow a hysterectomy unless I had cancer that was confirmed by a biopsy. And I would be sure the consent form clearly stated what type of surgery could be done.
I hope this info helps!
