Shin Splints: I don't think shin splints are related to your hysterectomy. Do you get the pain after a certain distance that you run? Is the pain in both legs? Do you do any weight training or stretching? I always become concerned with stress fractures. We see it in distance runners, more so in women then men. It sometimes manifests after running 3 or 4 miles.

Check bones: With an early surgical menopause, you need to be concerned about osteoporosis. Even though you are "doing everything right", the early loss of estrogen can cause loss of bone mineralization. You need to have a baseline bone mineral density with a dexa. If bmd low, then appropriate treatment.
