What are changes in lifestyle post hysterectomy for fibroids in 40s?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: On if they took out your ovaries or not. If they left your ovaries in and just took out your uterus then you will just stop your periods!. You will still have your hormones and you will not have the side effects of menopause and that is the best of both worlds! make sure you know exactly what they did in your surgery.
