Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy

has anyone ever sweated after a hysterectomy?

Has anyone ever experienced seating after a hysterectomy. My mum has had it but without her ovaries being removed so no need for hormone replacement tablets. But she sweats every night when she falls asleep….experience/ideas will be appreciated!
my mums in her early 40s and had the surgery last week monday(4th/06)…..

Your mom is experiencing surgical menopause and it’s often quite harsh. Even though she still has her ovaries, a hysterectomy can cause them to stop functioning. Sweating/hot flashes are part of that and she’ll experience all the other symptoms of menopause. It will be up to her as to whether or not she decides to persue hormone replacement.

Hysterectomy is generally very safe, but with any major surgery comes the risk of complications. Such complications include blood clots, infection, excessive bleeding or an adverse reaction to the anesthesia.

Other risks of hysterectomy are:

Damage to your urinary tract, bladder or rectum during surgery, which may require further surgical repair
Loss of ovarian function
Early onset of menopause
