A member asked:

With a partial hysterectomy how can i know when i go into menopause?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hot flashes: You mean by "partial" that you still have your ovaries, which will keep working until menopause. You may experience hot flashes or sweating--when everybody else is comfortable, or vaginal dryness. You may experience nothing! there is blood work, but that is more academic--your symptoms will be the main clue--and if you have do symptoms then just go with the flow.
