Question 3

I have had a hysterectomy dec 2013. i have constant "ovary" pain and sore breasts. i also have acne along my jaw line and back. would blood tests help?

Accepted Answer

Hormone fluctuations can occur normally with age.  Testing specific female hormones is not very accurate due to normal changes of levels daily. 
Pelvic pain can have many possible causes including ovarian cysts, bowel or bladder infections or issues, muscle or nerve pain, back pathology.  An evaluation and exam by an obgyn is a good place to start for both issues

Question 4

Post-total hysterectomy w/ ovaries intact (2018). pmdd worsening with age. feels like ive been in pms for a month. migraines/nausea/heavy sore breasts/acne/fatigue. why pms for a month straight? overall good health. cancer related?? im scared?

Accepted Answer

PMS is generally hormone related, not a warning sign of cancer. Sometimes an ovarian cyst can cause a lot of those symptoms, and cysts are more common after hysterectomy. Maybe try to schedule an ultrasound with your gynecologist?

Question 5

Why do women have hysterectomy?

Accepted Answer

A hysterectomy is needed for cancer of the uterus, ovary, or cervix.  It is an important option for 1) large fibroids or ones causing heavy bleeding or pain, 2) endometriosis, especially if causing pain or ovarian cysts, 3) adenomyosis especially if causing pain or heavy bleeding, 4) prolapse of the uterus, or 5) treatment of pain and bleeding when conservative measures fail.

Question 6

What's a single-port hysterectomy?

Accepted Answer

The laparoscope is being used through the "single port site" to visualize the pelvic organs probably prior to vaginal hysterectomy. Most davinci(robotic surgery) and lavh surgeries require more than one site to remove the uterus. Although surgeons are increasingly becoming more efficient at operating through a "single port site.".

Question 8

How do i use goldenseal for my acnes?

Accepted Answer

Goldenseal is a herb found from the northeast to Arkansas. It contains  berberine which has been used in several medical conditions without proof.  Most of the constituents  in Goldenseal are poorly absorbed and amounts off berberine are variable. There are much better treatments for acne available so check with a dermatologist

Question 9

Can anyone have have a hysterectomy? ?

Accepted Answer

Only females…  any surgery has risks, so a hysterectomy is only done for medical indications.  Check with your doc.

Question 10

Painful intercoarce after hysterectomy?

Accepted Answer

If you are less than 6 weeks out from your hyst, you shouldn't be having sex yet.  This could be vaginal dryness from lack of estrogen or vaginal cuff pain.  After hysterectomy you may loose a bit of vaginal length, especially in the menopause.  Your partner may have to avoid deep penetration during sex.  See a gyn for an exam.
