Q: over 40 just had a hysterectomy keeping the ovaries. are there any vitamins i should be taking?

: Ask your gyn provider for his/her recommendation for normal commercial "multivitamins" recommendation. With retained ovaries, you will still go through PMS and other menopausal symptoms , so if these become significant, ask your gyn provider about low dose oral contraceptives, which can alleviate PMS, etc. until well after menopause.
