Author Topic: Cycling after total hysterectomy with salpingo-oophorectomy  (Read 832 times)

Hello 👋

I’m 3 and a half years post op for pmdd. They also found endo and ando during the surgery. No brainier!

However from 6 weeks after the op I could feel “cyclical pain” and some pmdd arise. This has got stronger every month and now it’s as if I never had the op! Minus the bleed!

Phantom ovulation pain, pmdd right through to phantom period pains!

I’ve been on HRT from the beginning. I am currently using Oestrogen implants and Testosterone implants.

I’m new to the implants and have to top up with my Sandrena. But regardless if levels, stability, form of HRT my cycling has not stopped!

I asked about ORS and was given a two second “baby scan” ultrasound and said nope nothing there!

But something is wrong!

I have went through all this heart ache as have others I now know to be in surgical menopause under aged 40 with the cyclical pmdd remaining!!!!

Can anyone shed any light on this?

It was that bad they have me on syneral spray and that helped for about 10 weeks now the cycling is back with vengeance.

Even the syneral didn’t stop it completely but definitely dampened it down.

It’s bang on the dates I monitored from before op 🤦‍♀️ Every month!!

This is bizarre and I’m at my wits end!

Thoughts??

♥️♥️♥️

Could you go back to the consultant who performed your operation? Might there be a chance some of your endometriosis remained? I believe that can sometimes cause symptoms. Did you take progesterone when you first had the operation to stop any growth of endo cells? I'm sorry I can't be of more help, it sounds incredibly frustrating for you and I hope you can find some answers soon. Maybe there is a more specialist surgical Meno/ hysterectomy forum online that will be more clued up. X
