Post Partial Hyst - do I have my period w/o bleeding? Posted: 04-05-07 12:22pm
I had a partial hyst 4 weeks ago and I
know this may sound crazy but, I feel as
though I have a period right now. I am
not bleeding however, I feel crampy, achy,
tired and nasty, just like I did when I
had a period. Ironically, right now would
be the time I would have a period and like
I said, I am not bleeding just have all
the other symptoms. Am I crazy? I was
going to call my OBGYN however, I thought
I would give this a shot first. Help
please...Is this just in my head?
If the ovaries remain inside the body and
the functional sex hormones are still
produced, you will continue to feel their
monthly level variations...but will not
experience menstruation because your
uterus has been removed. There is nothing
to be worried about. The symptoms you
report are normal and expected for a woman
with functional ovaries.
