Q: Test For Ovary Function
asked by: Maxjaz on June 13th, 2006

I took a blood test last week to see if my one remaining ovary is still functioning. I had a radical hysterectomy to remove and treat cervical cancer six months ago. My surgeon moved one ovary so that if I needed radiation later I would keep one functioning ovary. As bad luck had it, I did need radiation so I lost one for sure. I am only 35 and am starting get hot flashed and night sweats. My Dr. Wants to check my ovary function, so he ordered this test. I got the results from the nurse, but she didn't know what the numbers meant, and my Dr. Is out of town until next week. The nurse told me that the number was 83.5, but she didn't know exactly what that meant. I have no idea, but would appreciate it greatly if someone could tell me what this means.

Thank you!
