GYN: free circulating hormones after hysterectomy
I had a patient come in today very emotional, one month after a
supracervical hysterectomy. She has multiple psychological issues, but the
thought popped into my brain that if the uterus is an end organ, and
hormones attach to receptors, once the uterus is gone does that increase the
free, circulating estrogen and progesterone levels? If so, can this lead to
some psychological changes? Likewise, if the uterus has increased in size
secondary to fibroid hypertrophy, will this lead to a decrease in
circulating estrogen and progesterone?
