Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: My mother had a hysterectomy 8 years ago due to uterine fibroids. She is 56 years old now. Will she still experience menopausal symptoms?Current general condition: Frequent flushing of the face, easily agitated emotions, insomnia
Medical history: Uterine fibroids
Auxiliary tests: Low platelet count
Other: Hyperthyroidism
Duration and frequency of the current illness: 2 months, with episodes lasting 1 to 4 hours each time.
Doctor's answer:
From your description, it seems that you have had your uterus removed, and this can still lead to menopause symptoms, because whether or not menopause occurs is not related to the uterus. The key is to look at the hormonal levels in your body.
